Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
Cut the ½ pound beef skirt, flank or sirloin steak into bite-sized cubes. Combine the cubed meat, ¾ cup peeled and cubed Yukon gold potatoes, ¼ cup peeled and cubed carrots, ¼ cup diced yellow onion, ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, and ¼ teaspoon dried thyme in a bowl and toss them together. Season with salt, pepper, and dried thyme. Set aside.
Roll the 1 chilled pie crust out and cut 4 8-inch rounds from the dough. Fill the top half of each dough round with the meat mixture.
Evenly distribute the 4 tablespoons butter between each pasty. Fold the dough over to form a half circle and seal by crimping the edges.
Whisk the 1 egg and 1 tablespoon water together to make the egg wash. Brush each of the pasties with the egg wash. Prick the tops with a fork to help release steam while they bake.
Bake for 35-45 minutes or until the crust is golden brown, and the meat is cooked through.
Notes
Rutabaga is traditionally used in Cornish pasties. Feel free to add 1/4 cup peeled and diced if you desire!If using a refrigerated store-bought pie crust, you will need to use both pie crusts in the box. Let the crusts sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Cut each crust in half so you have 4 total. Roll the halves into a ball before rolling them out into a circle.
