Chop onions 3-5 seconds / Speed 5.
Add butter, cook onion 5 mins / 100c / Speed 1.
Add potatoes, salt and milk, cook 25 mins/ 100c / Speed 1. Use simmering basket on lid instead of measuring cup.
When potatoes are soft, insert butterfly, add cheese
mash 20 seconds / Speed 3. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Cool filing. Pre heat oven to 200c while filling is cooling.
When cooled, spoon filling onto one half of the pastry, brush pastry edges with beaten egg, fold over to form a square sealing edges with a fork. Cut steam slashes onto top of pastry. Brush over with beaten egg.
Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
Bake in oven for 20 minutes until golden.

Tip
If you're short on time, cool mixture slightly and don't have pastry fully thawed to assemble. Put assembled pasties into freezer for 10 minutes to chill pastry before baking.
Preparation time states 30 minutes but 25 minutes of that is potatoes cooking so only 5 minutes of your prep time.

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

These are soooo good! Better than Gregg's in my opinion. I've made them so many times & today I tweaked the recipe and added 1/2 tsp mustard powder & 50g cream cheese. Deeelish!! 😋
1v1 Battle:The cakes look delicious! I definitely have to follow the way you share to enjoy ^^
Wow, these are just like the original ones! Made a batch of 10 and only 3 left! Big hit, thanks loads.
These are delicious. I had some left over potato and decided to give these a go so only needed to grate some cheese and cook an onion before mixing altogether. What a great way to use up left over mash and so quick. Thank you for posting the recipe. Will be going into my favourites folder.
anitanbhudia: Desiree are great for mashing but you really can use any type of potato. The key is not to mash until the potatoes are perfectly cooked as this will result in a creamy filling with no potato lumps. There is howerver slight, soft texture from the onion though.
Hope this helps!
hi, what are the best potaoes to use for this?
These pasties are delicious. Everyone loved them.
Delicious!
Love these!
When we lived in th Uk, everytime we went to Greggs I had a cheese and Onion pastie. These are exactly how I remember them.
Can't wait to make them again.
I made these for my friend from the UK she was very impressed
Thanks
