Instructions to make Caribbean patties for wimps:
- Make the crust first. Mix the flour, turmeric, sugar and salt then cut the butter into cubes and rub into the flour mix with your fingertips until it makes a breadcrumb like texture.
- Add in the shortening and vinegar and give a quick mix. Get about 250ml cold water and add a little bit at a time, mixing with your hands until you make a dough. You may not need all the water or you might need more
- Roll out the dough to about a £1 coin thickness then leave in the fridge for about 30 mins while you make the filling.
- To make the filling, fry the onion and garlic in some oil. Add all the spices and fry for about 5 mins till the onion is soft.
- Add in the mince and cook for about 10 mins or until the mince has browned.
- Add the parsley, scotch bonnet if using and a couple of tbsps water and cook for a further 5 mins. Turn off the head and leave to cool.
- Take the pastry out of the fridge then use a large glass to cut out as many circles as you can. Pop the circles back into the fridge until the mince has cooled
- When you are ready, preheat the oven to 190c and line a baking sheet with baking paper
- Take a tablespoon of the filling and place it in the middle of the pastry circle. Fold it over to make a half moon shape then press down the sides first with your fingers then with a fork. Keep going until you either run out of pastry or filling (or both!)
- Place as many as can fit on your baking sheet with a couple of cm apart and then bake in the oven for 30mins. You may need to do this in batches.
- Once cooked they should dry on the outside and if you tap the bottom they’ll be hollow sounding.
- Transfer them to a cooling rack. They can be eaten hot or cold. I like them cold but sometimes you can’t resist fresh out of the oven
