Инструкции
- Have all ingredients very cool. Cheese Pastry Sift flour and salt together in a bowl. Stir grated cheese into flour mix. add in shortening or possibly lard and cut in with pastry blender or possibly two knives till pcs are size of small peas. Sprinkle ice water over mix, a tsp. at a time, mixing lightly with a fork after each addition. Add in only sufficient water to hold pastry together. Work quickly and don't over handle. Shape into 2 balls (wrap in plastic wrap and chill) Apple Filling Place apples, warm water in saucepan, cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, till apples are barely tender (about 5 - 10 min. Drain thoroughly and add in butter and lemon juice. Mix grated cheese with sugar and cinnamon and add in to apple mix.
- Stir only sufficient to mix ingredients proportionately. Set aside. Flatten one ball of pastry on a lightly floured surface. Roll from center to edge into a round about 1/8 inch thick. With knife or possibly spatula, loosen pastry from surface whenever sticking occurs; lift pastry slightly and sprinkle flour underneath. Cut into 6-inch rounds, using a saucer as a guide. Spoon about 2 Tbsp. of the apple filling onto one half of each round. Moisten the edge of one half of the round with water to help form a tight seal and fold other half of the round over the filling. Press edges together with a fork.
- Repeat with the other pastry ball. Heat lard or possibly shortening in the skillet over medium heat. Place as many pies as will fit in skillet without crowding. Fry pies on one side 8 to 10 min, or possibly till golden. Turn and fry till other side is golden. Add in more shortening or possibly lard if necessary to keep pies from sticking. Serve hot with ice cream or possibly slices or possibly sharp cheddar cheese, or possibly glaze with a sugar glaze if you like.
