Instructions for Homemade Pastry

Heat the oil in a small frying pan or saucepan over low heat.

Add the onion and garlic and cook until almost soft - about 7 minutes.

Start Timer

Stir in the breadcrumbs, cardamom and herbs, then remove from the heat and leave to cool.

Place the mince in a bowl and season with salt and freshly ground pepper.

Using your hands, mix the egg and the cooled onion mixture until well combined. I fry off a small piece of the beef mince mixture before using to check that I have seasoned the meat well.
