Ingredients:
puff pastry ( I use frozen, but homemade is fine if you are a purist)
1/2 ounce unsalted butter
2 medium onions, finely chopped
1/2 lb double Gloucester cheese or 1/2 lb cheddar cheese, grated
4 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions:
Thaw the pastry.
If using homemade, put your dough in the refrigerator to chill.
Preheat oven to 400 F.
Melt the butter in a frying pan on a low heat.
Mix in the onions and cook them until they are just beginning to soften.
Mix them with the cheese and parsley.
Roll out the pastry and cut out 4 rounds, each about 6 inches in diameter.
Put a quarter of the cheese mixture on one half of each one.
Fold over the other side and crimp the edges together.
Lay the pasties on a floured baking sheet and brush them with milk or beaten egg.
Bake them for 30 minutes and serve hot.
