1. In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Gradually add ice water, mixing until the dough forms a ball. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3. In a medium saucepan, combine apples, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until apples are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into circles using a 4-inch cookie cutter.
5. Place a tablespoon of apple filling in the center of each circle. Fold over and press edges with a fork to seal.
6. In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry pies in batches until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
7. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
