JAMAICAN BEEF PATTIES

Steps:

• Put all Pastry ingredients (except the water) in a food processor and tap the pulse button to slowly incorporate the butter into the flour. If doing by hand rub butter into flour until it represents fine breadcrumbs, try to work as quick as possible to avoid butter melting
• Add ice-cold water bit by bit and knead with hands into the dough until it forms a playdoh like texture. (you may need a little less/more water than stated above) Try not to handle to much.
• Place pastry covered in the fridge whilst you create the beef filling.
• Heat oil in pan and add onions and red peppers sautee for 5 minutes until soft, add spring onions.
• Add mince, garlic, chilli, paprika, garam masala, turmeric and salt. Stir through until mince has browned
• Finally add dried/fresh thyme and stock. Place lid on and leave to simmer for 15 minutes whilst you cut out pastry.
• Preheat oven to 180°C fan/ 200°C/ 400°F / Gas Mark 6.Remove pastry from fridge, flour surface and roll out very thin.
• Use a saucer/small plate (about 17cm diameter) to cut around the pastry. Re-roll remaining pastry until all used up, you should have 5-6 circles. Or you could use smaller plates and create smaller patties?!
• Now put rolled out circles on to there own bit of parchment paper and add 2-3 tbsp of beef mixture in the middle
• Use finger to dap the outer circle with water
• Fold pastry over the mince and use a fork to crimp the edges together
• Whisk egg with water and brush on pastry to glaze. For a flat pastry fork a hole in the top. For a puffed-up pastry (as I like them) leave out the hole!
• Place all completed patties on to a tray (or two) and cook in the 180°C fan/ 200°C/ 400°F / Gas Mark 6 oven for 20-25 minutes.
• Serve and enjoy!

JAMAICAN BEEF PATTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the curry powder, turmeric, salt, flour, butter and sugar and whisk together until it looks like small peas.
• Slowly pour the water in small amount at a time and mix together with your hand until it becomes a ball. To make this process easier, you can use a food processor instead of your hands.
• Wrap the dough with plastic wrap and put it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or longer, while you make the meat filling.
• Season the lean ground beef with the ground ginger, allspice, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and complete seasoning. Set aside.
• In a large skillet, heat the oil and saute the onion, scotch bonnet pepper or red pepper flakes, tomato, scallions (green onions) and garlic for about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the seasoned lean ground beef to the sautéed vegetables and herbs. Use a wooden spoon to break it up and let it cook until it is no longer pink. Pour the soya sauce, browning and let it cook a little for about 3 minutes.
• Add the ketchup, curry powder, dried thyme, and bread crumbs and mix together. Pour the water, stir and cover with a lid. Allow to cook for about 10 minutes on low heat. Taste the mixture and adjust if it need more salt.
• Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
• In a small bowl, whisk the egg and water together. Set aside for later.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Remove the dough from the fridge and divide into two parts. Put back the other half in the fridge to continue to chill.
• Flour your work station and your rolling pin. Roll out the 1st half of the dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut out circles that are about 5 to 6 inches or to your desired circle size.
• On one half of each circle, put about 2 to 3 heaping tablespoon of meat filling. Dip your finger in some water and slightly moisten the edges of each circle. Then fold over the other half and seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges.
• Place each patty on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Whisk the egg and water together to make the egg wash. Brush each patty with the egg wash.
• Or if you are baking all the patties in one baking time frame, then place the patties on the baking sheet in the refrigerator until the second set is ready without brushing them with the egg wash. This helps the dough not to get to room temperature. Then when the second set of patties are done assembling and it is baking time, brush all of the patties with the egg wash.
• Bake at 350 degree F for about 25 to 30 minutes.
• For the 2nd half of the dough, repeat the same process.
• Remove from oven once baked. Serve warm and enjoy.

JAMAICAN BEEF PATTIES

Steps:

• Sift the flour into a bowl then stir in the sugar, salt and turmeric. Add the butter and rub them into the dry ingredients until you have a crumbly texture.
• Gradually add ice water to create a dough. Roll the dough into a ball, wrap in cling wrap and chill in the fridge 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, make the filling. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the meat and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, about 5 minutes.
• Add the onion and scotch bonnet and cook 3 minutes, until soft. Add the garlic powder, salt and black pepper.
• Dissolve beef cube in boiling water and add to the skillet with the paprika, allspice, breadcrumb or flour and the soy sauce or other sauce. Stir and simmer 20 minutes, then set aside to cool completely.
• When ready to cook, preheat oven to 350F.
• Take the chilled dough out of the fridge. Dust work surface and rolling pin with flour so the dough doesn't stick.
• Roll out the dough, when flat fold it into a square then roll again. Repeat 2 to 3 times to create a traditional patty crust.
• Roll the dough out to about 1/16th thickness.
• Place an upturned bowl or lid about 6 inches in diameter on top and carefully cut around it with a sharp knife. You should get 12 total, with a 6-inch size.
• Divide the meat mixture between each, about 3 tablespoons each and spoon it onto one side of the circle.
• Brush a little milk (or water) around the edge of the dough and carefully fold the patty over so the edges meet. Use your fingers to press and seal them, then use a fork and press around the edges.
• Poke a few holes on top with the fork to make steam holes and place on a baking sheet. Bake 25 minutes, until golden.
• Air fry 325F 10 to 12 minutes, turning halfway.

JAMAICAN BEEF PATTIES WITH COCO BREAD RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the coco bread: Sift the flour into a large bowl, then add the sugar, yeast, and salt and whisk to combine.
• In a liquid measuring cup, whisk together the coconut milk and ¼ cup coconut oil.
• Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and use a wooden spoon or spatula to stir until a shaggy ball forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes, until smooth. Shape the dough into a ball, tucking the ends underneath.
• Grease a large bowl with coconut oil, then transfer the dough ball to the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel and let rise in a warm, draft-free place until at least doubled in size, 1½-2 hours.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease with nonstick spray.
• In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of coconut oil with the melted butter.
• Gently punch down the dough and knead for 10 minutes more, until smooth and elastic. Use a bench scraper or knife to divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, about 5 ounces each. Working with one portion of dough at a time, roll into a taut ball by cupping your hands over the dough and rolling against the counter, tucking the ends underneath. Repeat with the remaining dough.
• On a clean surface, use a rolling pin to roll a dough ball out to a 7-inch circle. Use a pastry brush to lightly brush the surface of the dough with the coconut oil and butter mixture, then gently fold the dough in half to make a half-circle and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough. Brush the tops of the half circles with more of the butter mixture, then let rest for 15-30 minutes before baking.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
• Bake the coco bread for 15 minutes, until golden brown and puffed. Remove from the oven and immediately brush the tops with the remaining butter mixture. Let cool before serving.
• Make the Jamaican beef patty dough: Add the water, egg, and vinegar to a liquid measuring cup and whisk to combine.
• Add the flour, curry powder, sugar, and salt to the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times to combine. Add the cubed butter and pulse 10-12 times, until broken down into pea-sized chunks.
• Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture and pulse 5-7 times, until the dough comes together in a ball. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and use your hands to bring it together, then divide into 2 portions and shape into balls. Wrap each ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes while you make the filling. (The dough can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 week.)
• Make the filling: Add the scallions, onion, garlic, ginger, Scotch bonnet, thyme, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and allspice to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until a chunky paste forms, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the vegetable paste and cook until softened and most of the liquid has evaporated, 3-5 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the ground beef, beef stock, bread crumbs, brown sugar, salt, and Maggi sauce and cook, breaking up the beef with a wooden spoon and stirring frequently, until the mixture is thick and most of the liquid has evaporated, 15-20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let the filling cool while you roll out the dough. (The filling can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days.)
• Assemble the patties: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190˚C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Remove a portion of patty dough from the refrigerator. Use a bench scraper or a knife to divide the dough in half. Wrap one half in plastic wrap and return to the refrigerator. On a lightly floured surface, use a rolling pin to roll the remaining half of the dough out to a 8 x 16-inch rectangle, about ⅛ inch thick.
• Scoop 3 ¼-cup mounds of filling just above the horizontal midline of the dough, spacing evenly. Smooth the mounds if needed, then lightly brush the egg wash around the top half of each scoop of filling. Fold the bottom half of the dough up and over the filling, pressing around the mounds to seal and release any air (make sure none of the filling is trapped between the edges of the dough). Use a paring knife to cut between the filling mounds to separate into 3 patties, then trim the edges to about ½ inch. Transfer to a prepared baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator while you repeat with the remaining dough and filling to make 9 more patties. If desired, gather the dough scraps and repeat to make more patties.
• Remove the patties from the refrigerator. Use the tines of a fork to press down around the edges of each patty to seal completely. Brush the tops of the patties generously with egg wash.
• Bake the patties for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown around the edges and slightly crisp on the bottoms. Let cool for at least 10 minutes. Leftover patties can be cooled completely at room temperature, then stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
• Serve the patties with the coco bread.
• Enjoy!
