OMG !!
I love Steak Bridies, they are light and fluffy, yet hearty and filling
This is something I have only recently started to make from scratch
Stephens (a Dunfermline Bakery) have the best Steak Bridies in my opinion
These delicious meaty delights are a personal favorite of mine from back home in Scotland

For those of you who have never had one, its best described a pastry pocket filled with Meat & Gravy
Delicious
I love them so much, I had two on my last trip home
So after making Sausage Rolls I got to thinking, I wonder if I can make a Steak Bridie ?
Oh yes I can
Again, just like Sausage Rolls, no living, breathing Scot would make these while living in Scotland, you can just buy them for next to nothing, but here in Texas expats and the rest of you around the world need to make them from scratch. If we fancy a Bridie and Beans, we need to get our aprons on
These are a hit with Mr Tartan Tastes
Here's how I make them
Makes 8
You will need
1Pk Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry Sheets (2pk) - Puff pastry recipe coming soon
1lb Steak meat for stewing
Bisto Beef Gravy Granules or Powder
Beaten egg or milk to seal and glaze
 |
| Puff Pastry Sheets |
 |
| Beef Stewing Steak |
 |
| Bisto |
Cook the meat just as in the recipe for Steak Pie, click here to see how
Except, leave the meat cooking longer until there is less lumps of meat and its more of a shredded meat and gravy consistency
Let the meat cool completely (this is important as warm meat placed on pastry makes it melt)
Defrost the Puff Pastry Sheets
Lay the Sheets out and cut each sheet into 4, making 8 squares total
 |
| Pastry cut into 4 |
Take the cooled meat mixture and spoon some onto each square off to one corner
 |
| Place meat on one corner |
Brush egg or milk around the edge of each square
Fold each meat square, corner to corner, making a triangle shape
Pinch closed and using a knife cut a hole in the top for air to escape
 |
| Ready to bake |
Brush with egg or milk to glaze
Bake on baking trays in the oven at 400F for 15 minutes or until golden

Note - You can freeze them raw ready to defrost and cook later
Just like sausage rolls, enjoy hot with beans or enjoy this yummy pastry cold on its own
You can also make the filing with ground beef and onions, otherwise known as a mince and onion Bridie, similar to a Cornish pasty but without the potato & turnip
Enjoy, my pals
