A homemade Cornish pasty is a baked pastry filled with meat and vegetables. The figures here describe a recipe rather than a branded product, so the nutrient content will vary with the ingredients used. It mainly provides carbohydrate and fat, with some protein. Per 100g, it contains 28g of carbohydrate, 19g of fat, including 7.1g of saturated fat, and 6.7g of protein.
Carbohydrate and fat provide energy, while protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. The saturated fat content is worth noting for people monitoring their intake, and the amount eaten affects the overall energy and fat consumed. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
