Step 1

Sift flour.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl add the flour and salt.

Step 3

Slowly start to add water and with a dough mixer start mixing the water, flour and salt.

Step 4

Keep adding the water until you have a dough ball. You may need to turn off the mixer before the dough ball has been created and knead by hand.

Step 5

Knead the ball for about fifteen minutes. The ball should be quite stiff but not too dry.

Step 6

Wrap in cling film and place in the fridge overnight or at least six hours.

Step 7

Prepare a table by smearing 30 grams of lard over the surface.

Step 8

Roll out your dough as thinly as possible to create a large piece of flattened dough.

Step 9

Smear dough with 30 grams of butter.

Step 10

Start rolling the dough into a swiss roll shape and stretch the dough as much as possible as you go along.

Step 11

Once you have finished rolling by hand stretch the 'swiss roll' or 'snake' and roll into a snail shell shape. Wrap in cling film and place in the fridge for 1 hour.

Step 12

Once 1 hour has passed then prepare your table again to do the same procedure again.

Step 13

Smear remaining lard on table and roll out the snail shape dough.

Step 14

Smear 30 grams of butter over the flattened dough and roll into a swiss roll shape again.

Step 15

Stretch your swiss roll and make into a snail shell shape again. Wrap in cling film and place in the fridge one last time for 2 hours.

Step 16

During this time prepare your mixture.

Step 17

Preheat oven to 200oC.

Step 18

Take the dough out of the fridge and unravel. Smear with the remaining 10 grams of butter and cut in 3 cm pieces.

Step 19

Take one piece at a time and flatten with your fingers lengthways.

Step 20

Place a small spoonful of mixture onto the dough and close. If making cheese pastizzi fold one piece of dough in the centre and then cover with the remaining piece. Pinch the sides. If making pea pastizzi then fold over one side of the dough over in the shape of a semi circle (or apple turnover) and pinch the rounded sides to close.

Step 21

Place pastizzi on a baking tray with baking paper.

Step 22

Reduce oven temperature to 180oC and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown on all sides.

Step 23

To make the cheese mixture:

Step 24

Mix ricotta, egg, parsley and grated cheese gently.

Step 25

Season with pepper and salt

Step 26

To make the pea and corned beef mixture:

Step 27

Fry onion and garlic in a frying pan for five minutes

Step 28

Add curry powder and fry for a further minute

Step 29

Add corned beef and fry for about 5 minutes

Step 30

Add in mush peas and gently mix to warm the peas

Step 31

Taste and season with pepper and salt. Add extra curry powder if required.
