My dear friend D who I have known for many many years too me out for a belated birthday treat and spoilt me with many gifts including yummy nougat and truffle oil! But my favourite gift was a Gordon Ramsay cook book "Great British Pub Food". In it I found a recipe for authentic cornish pasties! I remembered that W's dad M is really keen on them so I decided to give it go.
I made a shortcrust pastry and a potato, swede and beef filling. I had one fresh out of the oven and the pastry was SO GOOD! Much better than the puff pastry in an Aussie pasty. Anyway, according to plan I nervously fed one to my Cornish Pasty Expert the next day for lunch on his run. Apparently it's authentic, but I need to use More Pepper! I'm happy with that :)
