OK - Tis true they're also known as "Brevilles", and the original jaffle irons were just a metal clamshell on long handles:


But the one I use looks kind of like this.... Imagine this:


...But washed and clean..

Then imagine it doesn't have the diagonal cutters, and there are two chambers like large square scallops - Here's a partial pic of it:


Lay a sheet of puff pastry over the recepticles, dollop the filling into it, fold the rest of the sheet over the filling, then close the two halves and cook for 3-5 mins.

I prefer to use pastry rather than bread as it seals a little better .

My favourite recipe for Cornish Pasty Filling:

Breville pasties
125g lamb mince, cooked and chopped
125g mixed chopped vegetables, cooked
1 cup mashed potato
1 egg
1 teaspoon mixed herbs
salt and pepper
1 sheet pre-rolled puff pastry

1. Combine steak, vegetables, potatoes, egg, herbs and seasoning, mix until well combined.
2. Lay pastry over plates.
3. Place in filling.
4. Fold pastry over and cook until lightly golden brown and crisp.

Yummo !!
