Gluten Free Butter Pastry
- Measure the flour, xanthan gum and salt into a bowl, stir to combine and sieve them into a mixing bowl.
- Chop the butter into small cubes and add them to the bowl.
- Using a pastry blender or fork, mash the butter cubes into the flour until it resembles breadcrumbs. Avoid using your fingers for this.
- Stir in enough water to bring the pastry together into a soft, slightly sticky ball of dough – it will appear a little wet but will absorb liquid while resting.
- Cover the pastry dough and leave it to rest for 15 minutes.
- Rub some butter around the inside of a 1lt/2pt ovenproof dish.
- Dust the work surface with flour, put two thirds of the pastry in the middle and sprinkle it with flour.
- Roll out the pastry into a rectangle or circle 5cm/2β larger than the circumference of your dish.
- Carefully lift or slide the pastry into the dish OR simply press it into the dish using your fingers.
- Cut away any pastry that hangs over the edge of your dish and add it to the unused pastry.
Leftover Filling
- Pre-heat the oven.
- Chop the meat and sausages or ham into chunks and put them into a mixing bowl.
- Cut the left-over vegetables into chunks and add them too.
- Finely chop the parsley, add this to the bowl and season with salt and pepper.
- Put the milk into a saucepan over a medium heat.
- Measure the cornflour into a small bowl, add the cold water and stir to make a paste.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the cornflour paste.
- Return the pan to the heat and stir as the sauce thickens.
- Tip the sauce into the mixing bowl and gently stir everything together.
- Pour the filling into the pastry lined dish and smooth the top.
- Break the egg into a bowl, beat it with a fork then brush a little egg around the edges of the pastry.
- Roll out the remaining third of pastry to make a lid a little larger than the dish.
- Carefully lift or slide the pastry lid onto the dish.
- Using your fingers, or the back of a fork, pinch or press to join the pastry edges.
- Cut away any pastry hanging over the edge of the dish.
- Brush the remaining beaten egg all over the top of the pie.
- Using a knife or scissors make a few cuts or slits in the top of the pastry to allow steam to escape.
- Chill the pie for 5 minutes.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes until golden.
