Steeped in the rugged charm of Cornwall’s mining heritage, the Cornish Pasty is more than a meal—it’s a handheld legacy. Traditionally tucked into miners’ pockets for lunch, these golden, crimped parcels were built to last: flaky pastry wrapped around hearty beef, potatoes, swede (rutabaga), and onion, seasoned simply and baked until deeply golden.
This authentic recipe stays true to its roots—no fancy twists, just honest, comforting flavors encased in buttery, crisp pastry. Perfect for picnics, packed lunches, or a cozy dinner with a side of pickled onions and a pint of ale.
