HOMEMADE MEAT PATTIES

Hey guys, welcome back to my page!

I'm bringing you guys a recipe today for a homemade meat/Jamaican patty. Let me tell you, I do not eat frozen food, but Jamaican patties are an exception. I used to feel so guilty after eating them though, so I decided I would try to make it at home from scratch, so I wouldn't feel bad going for seconds. Here's what I did

Dough:

• Mix/Whisk together flour, salt, turmeric, and butter
• Whisk water, vinegar, and an egg, add it to previous mixture and mix the two very well
• Once this forms into a dough, wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour

Filling:

• Cook ground beef in a large sauté pan over medium heat until brown
  
• Add onion, garlic, jalapeño/green chilli, paprika, thyme, black pepper, and salt : stir together
  
  
• Remove from heat and add bread crumbs and beef broth
• Stir well and set aside to cool completely

Putting it all together:

• divide dough into small balls, then roll out dough to form circles (doesn't have to be perfect)
• add a heart tablespoon of beef mixture onto each round
• fold over and press edges with fingers
• place patties on baking sheet and brush the tops with egg mixture ( whisked egg, turmeric, and water)
• bake in preheated oven for 25 to 35 minutes

Hope you enjoyed this recipe! I also linked below the websites I used to help make these patties.

Love,

G xo
