Kingston Beef Patties 🥟

Name: Kingston Beef Patties
Prep time: 36 min
Cook time: 54 min
Total time: 90 min
Yield: 2-4 servings
Cuisine: Jamaican
Ingredients: 500 g beef mince; 1 onion, grated; 2 scotch bonnet peppers, finely minced (or 1 habanero + chili flakes); 2 tbsp curry powder (Jamaican style); 1 tsp each: dried thyme, allspice (pimento), garlic powder; 1 carrot, grated; 2 spring onions, sliced; 1 tbsp tomato paste; 150 ml beef stock; Butter pastry: 300 g flour + 1 tsp turmeric + 180 g cold butter + ~120 ml water; Salt; egg wash to glaze

The orange-crusted parcel Jamaica feeds the world: a flaky, turmeric-tinted pastry shell crammed with Scotch-bonnet-seasoned minced beef that locals insist must be 'scotch bonnet hot and properly spiced.' In Kingston, patties are eaten standing at bakery counters with a piece of hard bread (or, famously, a slice of patty inside a bun). The trick is the filling: heavily spiced, gravy-thick, and cooked down dry so the pastry stays crisp.

Modo de preparo

1

Sauté onion and carrot until soft; add mince and break it up, browning well.
2

Stir in curry powder, thyme, pimento, garlic, tomato paste and scotch bonnet; toast a minute, then pour in stock and simmer until the filling is thick and almost dry. Fold in spring onions; cool completely.
3

Make a rough puff pastry: rub butter into turmeric flour in coarse chunks, add water, fold twice, rest 30 minutes.
4

Roll thin, cut rounds, mound filling on one side (a good Kingston patty is generous — nearly bursting), brush edges, fold to half-moons and crimp hard.
5

Glaze with egg and bake 200 °C for 20–25 minutes until the crust blisters gold-orange. Eat hot, standing up if possible.
