STEP 1: First, prepare the shortcrust pastry by mixing flour, butter, lard, and water.
STEP 2: Let the dough rest in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to make it easier to handle.
STEP 3: Meanwhile, prepare the filling by cutting the flank steak and vegetables, and mixing them with the bacon.
STEP 4: Roll out the dough on a floured surface and cut out circles of pastry.
STEP 5: On each circle, place a bit of filling in the center, then fold to form a pasty.
STEP 6: Seal the edges of the pasties by rolling them over themselves to prevent the filling from escaping.
STEP 7: Arrange the pasties on a baking sheet and lightly brush them with a beaten egg for a nice golden color.
STEP 8: Bake the pasties at 180°C for about 40 minutes until they are well golden and crispy.
