Preheat your oven to 200Β°C (400Β°F).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt.
Make a well in the center and add the olive oil and cold water.
Mix with a fork until the dough comes together, then knead gently for a couple of minutes until smooth.
Wrap the dough in cling film and allow it to rest in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add the ground beef, cooking until browned.
Add the chopped onion, carrots, and potato to the beef. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
Add peas and minced garlic to the beef and vegetable mixture.
Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper.
Cook for another 5 minutes, then remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to about 5mm thick and cut out circles approximately 20cm in diameter.
Place a portion of the beef and vegetable mixture onto one half of a dough circle, leaving a border.
Fold the other half of the dough over to encase the filling, then press the edges together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges.
Transfer the pasties to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Brush the tops with the beaten egg and make a small slit on top to allow steam to escape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown.
Allow to cool slightly before serving.
