FOR THE FILLING: In a large saucepan, combine the
persimmons and sugar. Add enough water to cover the
fruit. Cover the pan and cook over low heat until the
fruit is falling apart. Remove the lid and continue to
cook until the water is evaporated. Add the butter and
lemon juice; mix well. Set aside.
FOR THE PIE DOUGH: In a large bowl, mix together the
flour, sugar and salt. Using a pastry cutter or fork,
cut in the lard until the mixture is crumbly. Mix in the
milk and stir until the dough forms a ball. Roll out the
dough very thin and cut into eighteen 10" circles.
Spoon equal amounts of the filling into each pastry
circle and fold in half. Seal the pastry with a fork
dipped in cold water.
Place the clarified butter in a small high-sided
skillet. Place over medium heat. Fry a few pies at a
time, browning on both sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain the
pies on paper towels. Sprinkle lightly with granulated
sugar.
Yield: 18 pies
