A Cornish pasty
A
pasty (
Cornish:
Pasti,
Tiddy Oggy, pronounced
/ˈpæsti/ (the 'a' pronounced as in 'cat'), or less commonly
pastie) is a filled
pastry case, commonly associated with
Cornwall,
United Kingdom. It differs from a
pie as it is made by placing the filling on a flat pastry shape, usually a circle, and folding it to wrap the filling, crimping the edge to form a seal. The result is a raised semicircular package. The traditional Cornish pasty is filled with diced meat, sliced potato and onion
[1], and
baked. Pasties with many different fillings are made; some
shops specialise in selling all sorts of pasties.
Oggy is a slang term used in Britain which comes from a Cornish term for the pasty.
