Ingredients
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C. Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Cook the onion, garlic, and ginger for 2 minutes, or until softened and fragrant. Add in the lamb mince and cook, breaking up with the back of a spoon for 3-4 minutes, or until browned. Add in the potato, carrot, salt, pepper, and curry powder. Cook for 2-3 minutes then add in the peas and stir to warm through. Remove from the heat then stir through half the yoghurt and half the mint leaves.
- Cut 4 circles out of the shortcrust pastry and place them onto a clean work surface. Spoon ½ a cup of the lamb mixture into pastry and fold over to form a semi-circle. Press the edges to seal then place onto a baking tray and brush with egg wash.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden and the pastry is crispy on the bottom.
- Meanwhile, mix the remaining yoghurt with mint leaves and a pinch of salt.
- Place the pasties onto a serving plate and serve with mint yoghurt on the side.
