Answer:
A Cornish Pasty is a small meat filled pastry that is triangular in shape. As well as meat, there usually are vegetables like peas and carrots (although some say carrots should never be put in one to be authentic) and other veggies that are normally in a filling of a meat pie. Meat pies are sometimes called a "pot pie". A pasty is like a turnover, it is not contained in a pot or dish. See links below for some recipes.
