Step1:First of all, make Tartan skin. The raw materials of tartan skin are as shown in the figure.
Step2:Melt the butter in water and add 15g white sugar. Stir well with a blender. No need to beat. Beat until smooth.
Step3:Sift in the low gluten flour. Mix the flour and butter evenly by hand. Add water into the dough and knead it into smooth dough. Put the dough in the refrigerator and refrigerate it. At this time, we can make filling. The filling time is just right. About 15 minutes.
Step4:Cut the apple into small pieces. Heat 10g butter in the pot. The heat should not be too large to avoid the butter from scorching. Pour in the apple pieces and stir fry. Add 60g white sugar. Then the apple will produce a lot of water. Boil the apple pieces over low heat until soft.
Step5:Add 20g of water and corn starch to the apple cubes after they are softened. Drain the water first so that the apple does not encounter a large amount of starch and will be fried. Stir until the filling becomes thick.
Step6:Turn off the heat and add a quarter of a teaspoon of salt. Mix well. The filling is ready. Wait until it cools before use.
Step7:Take the dough out of the refrigerator. Divide it into two pieces of 2-1 size. Spread a layer of flour on the chopping board. Use a rolling pin to roll the large piece of dough into thin pieces. Spread the rolled dough into a six inch disc. Press the dough lightly with your hand to make it close to the baking tray. Roll over the baking pan with a rolling pin. Cut off the excess pie. Poke a hole in the bottom of the pie with a fork.
Step8:Fill the pie with stuffing.
Step9:Take another dough and roll it into thin slices. Cut into thin strips.
Step10:Use long strips of dough to make a cross mesh on the filling. Press the junction of the mesh and the pie by hand to make them stick together.
Step11:Brush a layer of whole egg liquid on the grid. Put the pie skin into the preheated oven. First bake it at 200 ℃ for 15 minutes. Then bake it at 170 ℃ for 20 minutes. In the last few minutes, you can observe the surface color. Bake it golden and then it will be out of the oven.
Cooking tips:This time, the filling is made of apple. It needs to be fried first. If it is made of other soft fruit filling, it doesn't need to be fried. For example, strawberry and mango. There are skills in making delicious dishes.
