1 tablespoon Kosher Salt

Preparation

Method  :
Preheat oven to 400F

In a large skillet, over medium heat, add oil, garlic, onion, carrot, celery, parsnip, fennel, potato and cabbage. Cook for 15 minutes or until vegetables are slightly softened. Add lamb and cook until browned

Next, add thyme, Worcestershire and tomato paste. Continue to cook until tomato paste turns a golden color- about 5 minutes. Add Guinness and cook until the liquid evaporates. Season with salt and pepper and refrigerate until chilled

Meanwhile, roll out puff pastry and cut into 4” x 4” squares. Place chilled meat mixture in the center and brush the edges with beaten egg, fold over to form a triangle and press edges together with a fork. Brush tops of pies with more beaten egg and place on a non-stick baking sheet

Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve immediately
