AUSTRALIAN MEAT PIES
These terrific little meat pies are often referred to as Australia's national food. Great for munching on during sporting events, or just for a fresh new dinner idea. Cool pies well before serving, as filling will be very hot. Eat by hand or with knife and fork, as desired.

GROUND BEEF TURNOVERS
Meet the Cook: Traditional meat pies aren't among my husband's favorites. He likes these so much, however, that he even eats them cold! I've found they're a great lunch for a haying crew as well. Brian and I have a son, 11 months. -Wendy Tomlinson, Echo Bay, Ontario

TANGY BEEF TURNOVERS
My mom's recipe for these flavorful pockets called for dough made from scratch, but I streamlined it by using crescent rolls. My children love them plain or dipped in ketchup. -Claudia Bodeker, Ash Flat, Arkansas

MINIATURE MEAT TURNOVERS
They are great for snacking on with red wine or for feeding the boys at the next game night. Next time I make these I may try using puff pastry instead of the crescent rolls for a lighter effect. Let me know how it goes if you try it!

Steps:
- 1. Brown hamburger in a large skillet. When all the red is gone, add the remaining ingredients and saute for about 10 minutes. Let cool slightly.
- 2. Unwrap a package of crescent rolls. CUT EACH CRESCENT ROLL IN HALF (very important) - they will not be evenly sized. Place 1 teaspoonful or so of meat mixture on each half of the crescent roll and wrap up (just pinch the dough around the mixture and make sure it is "closed") If you are using these right away, simply place each turnover on a cookie sheet about 1 inch apart. Continue with remaining crescent rolls and meat mixture.
- 3. Bake at 375 for approximately 15-20 minutes - until lightly browned.
- 4. If you are making these for later, place each turnover on a cookie sheet (get as many as you can on each sheet) - then place the cookie sheet in the freezer for about 10 minutes, until the turnovers are hardened slightly) - then you can just place them in plastic bag and freeze. When cooking the frozen turnovers, let them defrost slightly and cook them for about 5 minutes additional. Keep watching the bottoms so they don't burn.
PASTECHIS (ANTILLEAN MEAT TURNOVERS)
A family favorite from when we lived on the Caribbean island of Bonaire. This recipe does involve some time, but the time and effort are worth it! The pastry recipe is posted separately. Besides the meat, we also like to use chunks of cheese in the pastry rounds too! Be sure edges are sealed well, or else they could come apart during frying; especially the cheese!

CORNISH BEEF AND VEGETABLE TURNOVERS
Steps:
- Make dough:
- Blend together flour, salt, and butter in a bowl with your fingertips or a pastry blender (or pulse in a food processor) until mixture resembles coarse meal with some roughly pea-size lumps.
- Beat together yolk and 1/3 cup ice water, then drizzle over flour mixture and gently stir with a fork (or pulse in processor) until incorporated.
- Gently squeeze a small handful of dough: If it doesn't hold together, add more ice water, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, stirring (or pulsing) after each addition until just incorporated, continuing to test. (If you overwork dough or add too much water, pastry will be tough.)
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and divide into 6 portions. With floured heel of your hand, smear each portion once in a forward motion to help distribute fat. Form each portion into a disk, rotating on work surface. Wrap disks separately in wax paper or plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 8.
- Make filling while dough chills:
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté mushrooms, stirring, until browned and dry, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to skillet and cook onion and garlic over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add onion to mushrooms. Peel potato and cut into 1/2-inch cubes, then add to mushroom mixture with steak, carrots, parsley, salt, and pepper, tossing well. Cool completely.
- Assemble pasties:
- Roll out 1 piece of dough on lightly floured surface into a 9-inch round (keep remaining pieces covered). Mound 1 cup filling on round, slightly off center. Brush a 1/2-inch border on dough with water and fold dough over to form a half-moon. Trim edge with a fluted pastry wheel or a knife, then crimp to seal. Cut 3 small steam vents in top crust with a sharp knife and put pasty on 1 of 2 buttered large baking sheets. Make more pasties with remaining dough and filling, then chill 30 minutes, loosely covered.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Brush pasties with egg and bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position and rotating sheets halfway through baking, until golden, about 40 minutes total. Cool slightly before serving.

- Place 1 tbsp of oil in a large heavy based pot over high heat. Add half the beef and sear until the outside is lightly browned. Remove from the pot into a bowl and repeat with remaining beef.
- Lower the heat to medium high and add the remaining olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until the onion is translucent - around 5 minutes.
- Return the beef to the pot along with all other Filling ingredients other than the cornstarch / cornflour and water. Mix to combine. The liquid should be just enough to cover most of the beef but there should be a bit protruding through the surface.
- Bring to a simmer, then lower the heat to low / medium low so it is bubbling very gently. Leave to cook for 50 minutes to 1 hour, stirring occasionally, or until the beef is very tender. Because the beef is cut so small, it shouldn't take much longer than 1 hour. If the liquid evaporates too quickly, just add a bit more water.
