Directions
Combine chicken, potatoes, onion, carrots, ¼ cup water, salt, and pepper.
Divide pastry into eight equal portions; roll out each portion into a 6½ inch circle.
Spoon ½ cup meat mixture on the center of each circle.
Beat together egg and water; brush edges of circles with beaten egg, making a ¾ inch border.
Gently lift sides of circle to meet top.
Using fingers, firmly press edges together; flute edges.
Combine 3 cups flour and salt in a bowl; cut in shortening with pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal.
Sprinkle cold water (1 tablespoon at a time) evenly over surface; stir with a fork until all dry ingredients are moistened.
