Preheat the oven to gas 5,
190°C, fan 170°C. Fry the chopped onion in a small frying
pan. In a bowl, toss the rest of the vegetables with the
oil and spread out in a single layer on a large baking
sheet. Season well. Bake for 35 minutes, or until browned.
Set aside to cool.
-
Add the chopped rosemary,
sundried tomato paste and lamb mince to the roast
vegetables in a mixing bowl and combine.
-
Cut each pastry pack into 4
even slices. Spoon a quarter of the lamb mix into the
middle of one side of each, fold over and trim the excess
pastry to form a half-moon shape. Twist and crimp the
pastry edges together to seal. Cut two slashes in the top
and repeat to make 8 pasties. Space out on a baking sheet.
Brush the tops with beaten egg and bake for 35-40 minutes,
until puffed-up and browned.
-
Freezing and
defrosting guidelines: Allow to cool completely.
Wrap well in cling film and tin foil (to prevent freezer
burn) and freeze for up to 3 months. Loosen the tin foil
and cling film but leave to defrost in packaging at room
temperature for several hours before serving. If you wish
to serve the baked goods warm, place them on a baking
sheet for 10 minutes in a moderate oven.
