Stay tuned to ascertain how they came out....

Okay, the flaky crust was more crumbly! lol It came out a little dry, but the filling... OH THE MEAT FILLING - was JUST RIGHT! Nice and spicy and curry-y! lmao! Hubby said it was probably just too humid as I was making them causing the dough to fall apart, causing him to add more flour causing my patty to be dry! That's right, I blamed it on him - my hubby! LMMFAOOO!!

Looks great ! I use epanada wrappers ready made and in the freezer section. You can find them at Latin stores I just rub with a bit of curry spice and they are really good. I miss those patties too!

[Str8isis]

THAT'S THE MESSED UP PART... I can't even get epanada dough here in Michigan - no REAL latino markets! ugh!!! It would have been so much easier if I had epanada! lol

I love Patties! I make them all the time and in my opinion the dough turns out better if you use margarine instead of butter. And not melted! I chill my margarine and shortening before mixing. I also use a food processor to make the dough and they turn out perfect every time!

@balibabi Traditionally patties are baked. I have seen a few ppl frying them, but usually are ppl without access to an oven.

[taleeni]

Good for you. I am Jamaican and never even thought of making patties, you may have inspired me. Hubby is cute too.

[balibabi]

I think instead of baking in the oven they are suppose to be fried on the stove. I just tried baking some last night. The meat was perrfect.I had problem with the dough-pastry texture too?

They do actually have many places where they sell Jamaican Beef Patties in Michigan... Sams Club, Caribbean Citchen, the Tropical Hut, And Rono's (All restaurants in Detroit, with the exception of Sam's being nation wide) but yea my parents are Jamaican and used to take me to those places alot.
