A beloved Caribbean street food, these patties are made with flaky pastry colored yellow with turmeric and curry, filled with spiced ground beef and baked. Their mildly spicy flavor makes them a satisfying meal on their own.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Make and chill the dough

30 min

Dissolve the turmeric in a little water. Add it to the flour with the cold butter and salt, then knead into a dough. Shape into a ball and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

2

Cook the filling

20 min

Sauté the onion and garlic, then add the ground beef, curry, Turkish red pepper flakes and thyme. Cook in a pan until the liquid evaporates, then let cool.

3

Roll, fill and seal the pastry

20 min

Roll out the dough and cut it into circles. Place filling on one half of each circle, fold the other half over, and press the edges closed with a fork.

4

Bake

35 min

Bake in a preheated oven until golden and crisp.

Reminder

Important: Dissolve the turmeric in water before adding it to the dough; otherwise, the color may be uneven. If the oven is too cool, the pastry will not turn crisp, so be sure to preheat it. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten) and eggs.

Un yerine yulaf ezmesi kattım, kıvamı bozmadı. Baharat oranını kendime göre ayarladım, tarifin ruhunu bozmadı. Elimde yoktu, şekeri pekmezle değiştirdim, tatlı bir dokunuş kattı.

Malzemeleri sırayla eklemeyi unuttum, kıvamı biraz farklı oldu. İlk denemede tuzunu kaçırdım, ikinci seferde daha dikkatli oldum. Ölçüleri göz kararı yaptım, biraz tuzlu oldu.

Bir dahaki sefere ölçüleri biraz daha dikkatli tartarsanız fark edeceksiniz.
