-and bottoms) 1/3 c All-purpose flour
1 tb Salt
-PASTRY-
2 c Self-rising flour; sifted 3/4 c Milk
1/3 c Shortening 1 Egg; beaten
Combine first seven ingredients in a large Dutch oven; cook over
medium heat until meat is browned. Sift 1/3 cup flour into Dutch
oven and stir well to combine with meat mixture. Remove from heat;
let cool slightly. Drain meat mixture in colander; set aside.
Sift flour into a medium bowl; cut in shortening until mixture
resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk and egg; stir with a fork until
ingredients are moistened. Shape dough into a ball; divide into 3
parts.
Roll 1/3 of dough out on a lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch
thickness; cut dough into 5 1/2-inch circles, using a saucer as a
cutting guide. Place dough circles on a lightly greased baking sheet.
Repeat rolling and cutting procedure with remaining dough.
Place a heaping tablespoon of meat filling on one side of each pastry
round. Moisten edges of rounds with a small amount of water. Fold
pastry over to cover filling; seal edges using a fork dipped in
water. Prick pastry gently with a fork. Deep fry in hot oil (350F)
until golden brown. Drain on absorbent paper; serve warm. Yield: 26
to 28 pies.
NOTE: Freeze uncooked pies in plastic freezer bags; no need to thaw
before frying. Also, dough may be cut with a biscuit cutter and
filled with 1 teaspoon filling to make cocktail meat pies.
