Method
- To make the pastry, crumble together the flour, salt and the Stork margarine in a bowl by hand until it resembles breadcrumbs.
- Add in the cold water, one tablespoon at a time until it forms a dough.
- Wrap the dough in cling film and chill for an hour.
- To make the filling, mix all of the ingredients together.
- Pre-heat the fan oven to 180C/gas mark 3 and roll out the pastry and cut into discs using a small plate as a guide.
- Put a large tablespoon of the filling just below the middle of the disk.
- Use a pastry brush to spread a little egg around the edge and pull the pastry over and seal shut.
- Use a fork to create a crimp pattern around the edge. Pierce with a knife to let the steam out and brush with the beaten egg.
- Bake for 30 minutes, these are best enjoyed hot so serve straight from the oven or heat up in the microwave before eating.
