Method
- 2. Put butter in a bowl, add refined flour and salt and rub till it resembles breadcrumb texture. Add sufficient chilled water and knead into a semi-soft dough. Wrap the dough in cling wrap and keep in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
- Finely chop spring onion bulbs.
- Heat oil in a non-stick pan, add spring onions and sauté till translucent. Add garlic and sauté further for 2 minutes. Add carrots, squash and salt, mix well. Sprinkle a little water and mix well. Cook on low heat for 2 minutes.
- Cut the chicken into small cubes. Add chicken to the pan and continue to cook for 3 minutes.
- Add thyme and crushed black peppercorns and salt and mix well and cook till chicken is done finely chop spring onion greens and add and mix well.
- Preheat oven at 180º C.
- Dust some dry flour on the work top, place the dough on it and roll out as thinly as possible. Using a star shaped cutter, cut 4 pieces, then using a small round cutter cut 4 pieces, finally using a big round cutter cut 2 pieces. Remove the excess dough.
- Place some chicken mixture in the centre of 2 star shaped pieces and apply a little water at the edges, cover with the remaining 2 star shaped pieces and press lightly with a fork to seal. Similarly proceed with the 4 small rounds.
- Place some chicken mixture at one side of the bigger round pieces, fold the other side over to make a moon shaped pastry. Press the edges with a fork to seal.
Grease a baking tray with some oil and place the pastries on it. Brush the beaten egg over all of them. - Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes.
- Serve hot with tomato ketchup.
