How to cook deliciously - Coal Miners Pasties

1 . Stage

Place flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and lard in a bowl. Quickly rub lard into flour with your fingertips until it resembles small peas. Pour in ice water and form into a ball. Add more water if it feels too dry. Divide dough into 6 balls; wrap in plastic and chill for one hour.

2 . Stage

In a bowl, combine steak, turnips, potatoes, onions, remaining 1 tablespoon salt, and pepper.

3 . Stage

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

4 . Stage

Roll out one ball of dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thick. Using a cake pan, trace a 9-inch circle in dough; cut out the circle. Place about 1 1/2 cups of steak mixture into middle of the circle. Fold edges of the circle up to meet along the top of filling; crimp dough along the top to seal. Repeat until dough is used up. Use a spatula to transfer pasties to an ungreased baking sheet.

Bake pasties in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until golden. Serve hot or at room temperature.
