I've been weak recently. Ordering pizzas and buying easy food. Today I had some time, in between X-Files DVDs, so I whipped up a proper pasty.
The filling consisted of a mix of raw steak, potato, carrot, onion and swede. Seasoned with lots of salt and pepper. I laid a pile in the middle of the shortcrust pastry (store bought) and added a little butter on top. Then I folded it over and expertly crimped it, as you can no doubt see ;-)
The pastry was a little soft, you may be able to pic out a few patches. I cut a little hole in the top too, I didn't want any explosions!
40 mins at 220-230C and all was ready. The little one to the side was part of the leftovers...
Food, glorious food... done my way. Pretence of perfection

Looks delicious, Nazca.
But what is "swede"?
What season of the X-Files are you watching? I loved that show but it all went downhill towards the end.
i was going to ask what is it stuffed with then i realised maybe i should actually read the entry and not just drool over the photos :)
so...xfiles... hmm. i have to admit im proud, maybe if you are nice i will buy you an xfiles cap so we can be geeky xfiles fans together ;)
Cream P, Swede is a root vegetable, you call it rutabaga I think. It's like a cross between cabbage and turnip.
I'm watching series eight, I missed a few of them because they started to get pants, but now I have a DVD mailing system so I thought I'd get all the series I missed :-)
Cat, at last I have a reason to be mean to you ;-)
Oh, my gawd!!! That looks so tasty!
I want, i want, i want!
