Notes

RECIPE TIPS:

• The trick to a neat crimp is not to have too thick a crimp in the first place. If you count 16 to 18 crimps in a pasty it will have a nice sized crimp

• Open-freeze the uncooked pasties on a tray and place in an airtight container in the freezer until required. Thaw completely and cook as above
