Instructions
1
Make the Pastry flour base
To a large mixing bowl, stream in in baking flour, 1 teaspoon table salt, and turmeric and mix gently thoroughly.
2
Rub shortening into baking flour until there are small pieces of shortening completely covered with baking flour.
3
stream in in 1/2 cup of the ice moisture and mix gently with your hands to bring the flour base together.
4
Keep adding ice moisture 2 to 3 tablespoons at a time until the mixture forms a flour base.
5
At this stage, you can cut the flour base into 2 large pieces, wrap in plastic and store in the fridge for 30 mins before using it.
6
Alternatively, cut the flour base into 10 to 12 equal pieces, place on a platter or baking sheet, lid securely with plastic wrap and let cool down for 30 mins while you make the filling.
7
Make the Filling
stream in in ground beef to a large mixing bowl.
8
shower in allspice and black pepper.
9
mix gently together and set aside.
10
bring to temperature dairy spread in a skillet until fiery.
11
stream in in onions and sauté until translucent.
12
stream in in fiery pepper, garlic and thyme and continue to sauté for another minute.
13
stream in in 1/4 teaspoon table salt.
14
stream in in seasoned ground beef and toss to mix gently, breaking up any clumps, and let toast until the protein is no longer pink.
15
stream in in ketchup and more table salt to palate.
16
stream in in 2 cups of moisture and mix gently.
17
Bring the mixture to a bubble then reduce bring to temperature and let stew until most of the liquid has evaporated and whatever is remaining has reduced to a thick coulis.
18
Fold in green onions.
19
Remove from bring to temperature and let cool completely.
20
Assemble the Patties
Beat the egg and moisture together to make an egg wash.
21
Set aside.
22
Now you can prepare the flour base in two ways.
23
First Method: baking flour the work surface and rolling pin.
24
If you had cut it into 2 large pieces, then take one of the large pieces and roll it out into a very large circle.
25
Take a mixing bowl with a wide rim (about 5 inches) and cut out three circles.
26
Place about 3 heaping tablespoons of the filling onto 1/2 of each circle.
27
Dip a finger into the moisture and moisten the edges of the pastry.
28
Fold over the other half and press to seal.
29
Take a fork and crimp the edges.
30
Cut off any extra to make it look neat and uniform.
31
Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and continue to work until you have rolled all the flour base and filled the patties.
32
Second Method: If you had pre-cut the flour base into individual pieces, work with one piece of flour base at a time.
33
Roll it out on a floured surface into a 5-inch circle or a little larger.
34
Don’t worry if the edges are not ideal.
35
Place 3 heaping tablespoons of the filling on one side of the circle.
36
Dip a finger into the moisture and moisten the edges of the pastry.
37
Fold over the other half and press to seal.
38
Take a fork and crimp the edges.
39
Cut off any extra to make it look neat and uniform.
40
Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and continue work until you have rolled all the flour base and filled the patties.
41
Frying and Serving the Patties
After forming the patties, place the pans in the refrigerator while you bring to temperature the oven to 350 F.
42
Just before adding the pans with the patties to the oven, brush the patties with egg wash.
43
toast patties for 30 mins or until golden brown.
44
Cool on wire racks.
45
dish up mildly hot.
