Step 3Fill 'er up...
Put a couple of dollops of stew in the top part. Put a couple of dollops of pie filling in the bottom part. Try not to get any of the filling near the edges or it will not seal properly and you will have a mess on the baking sheet or pie pan.
Press down to seal the two meal compartments, kinda like making ravioli. Seal all of the edges with water or egg. Crimp all of the edges with a fork. It also makes a decorative crust edge. If you want, you can fold and twist the edges together in a decorative way. Dim sum chefs of all ages will have experience with doing this.
Use scraps of dough to further decorate the pasty. Make the robot slot, hands, eyes, buttons, wheels, etc.
You can cut out leaf shapes or other accoutrements for your pasty if you go for the plain-fold-the-pie-crust-in-half calzone method.
Finally, prick some holes or make small slashes in the top just like an apple pie to let the steam escape or else you will have it explode when cooking.
You can do an egg wash (1 egg with a bit of water) brushed over the pasty before it goes in the oven to give it a nice shine. This is the tanning lotion for when it goes in the oven.
