Method



  • Firstly pre-heat the oven to 180 C.

  • Heat a large frying pan with no oil and toast the pine nuts for 2 minutes, stirring often, until lightly browned. Then crush the nuts.

  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan and gently saute the onion and leek with the garlic for 10 minutes until it is soft.

  • Wash the kale well and dry thoroughly. Shred it finely. Add the kale to the pan of onions, leek and garlic and saute with the lid on for 5 minutes, until the kale is wilted. Then remove the lid and continue to cook until most of the moisture has evaporated.

  • Add the nutmeg, pine nuts and season to taste.

  • Roll out the pastry to about ½ cm thick. Use a saucer and a knife to cut 4 circles, to make the pasties.

  • Put 2-3 tablespoons of filling into the middle of each pasty. Crumble the blue on top of the filling.

  • Brush the edges of each circle with a little milk or beaten egg, then seal together to make a pasty shape. Brush the top of the pasty with milk or egg.

  • Put on a greased baking tray and bake for about 40 minutes, until the pastry is golden and crispy.
