Summary

He improvised a Cornish pasty, seasoning filling with garlic powder and stock, then layered butter through dough by repeated folding. Uneven filling and uncertain crimping made the pastry look improvised, but egg wash and pricking produced a professional-looking baked exterior. Cutting it open, he found the pastry soft rather than rock-hard and joked he could work at Greggs.

Insight

Compared with the failed pie, this attempt shows rising confidence after an uncertain, improvised process.
