I thought Corned Beef & Cabbage Hand Pies would be a good idea for a St Patrick’s Party. I bought a brined corned beef from the supermarket and boiled it adding some garlic, onion, carrots, and some leftover pastrami spice. I used the cooking liquid from the corned beef to braise the cabbage When the corned beef was cold it got sliced and some cabbage got chopped. Then I made the dough. Brushed the inside of the dough with beaten egg whites.

Filled the dough with some corned beef and cabbage. Closed the dough and brushed with egg yolks. Baked till light brown.

These went in the 350F oven for around 30 minutes.
