Seasoned beef mince sits inside a folded half-moon of pastry with a crimped edge. Unlike a pie, the filling is sealed between two layers of pastry, so there’s no lid and no loose gravy. It’s a drier style, with the mince doing most of the work for flavour and texture. Four'N Twenty’s classic take stays close to the traditional pastie format, which sits alongside its better-known pies in the frozen range. Heat it from frozen and the pastry turns golden while the centre stays compact and meaty.
