Steps:

• Combine first 5 ingredients; form 4 oval patties.
• Brown patties on both sides.
• Remove and keep warm.
• Reserve 2 T drippings in skillet.
• Saute green pepper and onion until tender.
• Add next 6 ingredients.
• Mix flour and water to a smooth paste.
• Add to tomato mixture, stirring constantly.
• Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes.
• Return patties; cover and simmer for 25 minutes.
• Uncover and simmer 5 more minutes.
• Remove bay leaf.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). In a large bowl, combine flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder, and pinch of salt. Cut in 1/4 cup margarine and shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in water until mixture forms a ball. Shape dough into a log, and cut into 10 equal sections. Roll each section into a six inch circle (approximately 1/8 inch thick). Set aside.
• Melt margarine in a skillet over medium heat. Saute onion until soft and translucent. Stir in ground beef. Season with 1 teaspoon curry powder, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Cook until beef is evenly brown, stirring constantly. Stir in beef broth and bread crumbs. Simmer until liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat.
• Spoon equal amounts of filling into each pastry circle. Fold over and press edges together, making a half circle. Use a fork to press edges, and brush the top of each patty with beaten egg.
• Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until beef is no longer pink and onion is tender, 6-8 minutes, breaking up beef into crumbles; drain. Stir in curry powder, thyme, pepper and salt; set aside. For crust, in a large bowl, whisk together flour, curry powder and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add water; stir just until moistened. Divide dough into 8 portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 6-in. circle. Place about 1/4 cup filling on 1 half of each circle. Fold crust over filling. Press edges with a fork to seal., Transfer to parchment-lined baking sheets; brush with beaten egg. Bake until light brown, 22-25 minutes. Remove to wire racks. Serve warm. Freeze option: Cover and freeze unbaked pastries on a parchment-lined baking sheet until firm. Transfer to freezer containers; return to freezer. To use, bake pastries on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a preheated 350° oven until heated through, 25-30 minutes.

Steps:

• To make the pastry, combine the flour, salt, baking powder, and curry powder in a large mixing bowl. Cut the butter into small pieces and add to the bowl. Working quickly and using your fingertips, squeeze together the flour mixture and butter and toss it together by scooping under the mixture with both hands. When the mixture resembles a very coarse meal, add the water to the bowl.
• With floured hands, mix and squeeze the dough just until it forms a ball. Knead it once or twice to combine it fully (the less kneading, the better). Spread the dough into 2 pieces, flattening each into a thick pancake. Wrap in plastic and set them in the refrigerator to chill for at least 15 minutes. (The dough will keep in the refrigerator up to 5 days. Remove it from the refrigerator a few minutes before using it.)
• For filling, mix together the beef, onion, scallions, garlic, peppers, and thyme in a large bowl. In a large skillet, heat the oil over high heat until it is very hot, and add the beef mixture. Fry until the meat is brown and the moisture is evaporated, about 8 minutes. Add the curry powder, salt, and black pepper, stirring occasionally over high heat, allowing a crust to form on the bottom of the pan.
• Add the water and stir the mixture, scraping the bottom to incorporate the browned crust. Add the breadcrumbs and stir. The consistency should be like a thick stew. Add more water as needed. Cover, reduce the heat to very low, and cook for 15 minutes. Set it aside to cool.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut each piece of the dough into 9 pieces. Using a rolling pin on a floured surface, roll out each piece of pastry into a rectangle shape with rounded edges. Spread a large spoonful of the cooled meat mixture over one side of the dough, leaving at least 1/2- to 3/4-inch border on the outside edge. Using your finger, paint water around the border. Fold the other side of the dough over, and roll and crimp the edges. Lightly press a floured fork around the edge of the patty.
• Place the patty onto a cookie sheet and repeat the procedure with the remaining dough. The patties may be covered in plastic and frozen at this point for later use. Brush each patty with the egg wash and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the patties begin to turn a golden color.

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes: Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. When warm, add the potatoes and some salt and pepper. When golden on one side, toss in the onion, salt and pepper, and some oil if the pan is dry. Saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and add the garlic and cook until fragrant, just 1 minute more. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a plate or bowl.
• Cook the beef: In that pan, add some olive oil, if needed, and the cumin, curry, chili powder, allspice, thyme, cinnamon, salt, and a few grinds of pepper. Allow the spices to bloom in the pan, about 1 minutes. Once fragrant, add the beef, combine it with the spices and cook on medium-high heat, stirring often to break up the beef, until it browns, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the corn and reserved potato-onion mixture. Let cool.
• Assemble the patties. When the beef filling is cool to the touch, work with 1 wrapper at a time and scoop 2 heaping tablespoons of filling into the center, then fold the dough over to form a half circle. Press out the air with your fingertips, from the filled sides to the edges. Press the tines of a fork along the edges to seal, creating a border about 1/2-inch wide.
• Repeat with more filling and wrappers.
• Fry the patties: In a large pot or deep fryer, heat 4 inches of oil to 365 degrees F, so the oil rests at 350 degrees F when the patties are added. In batches of 2 or 3, fry until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes for each batch. Allow the oil to rise to 360 degrees F before beginning a new batch. Transfer the patties to a plate with paper towels scrunched up so one side of the patties don't get soggy. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a bowl, beat the egg; stir in onions, bread crumbs and mustard. Add beef and mix well. Shape into four 1/2-in.-thick patties. , In an ungreased skillet, cook patties for 4-5 minutes on each side or until meat is no longer pink; drain. , In a small bowl, combine gravy, water and horseradish; add mushrooms. Pour over patties. Cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until mushrooms are tender and heated through.

Steps:

• For the filling.
• In a large pan cook beef and onions till brown, add spices, breadcrumbs and water.
• Continue to cook for 3-5 minutes, the breadcrumbs will absorb the water( you may need to add more water) Adjust to your likeness.
• Let cool until dough is ready.
• For the starter-mix the yeast, flour and water (first 3 ingrediants)in a medium size bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rest in a warm place for 1 hour.
• For the dough.
• sift the flour, tumeric and salt in a large bowl, with a pastry blender add the butter or crisco till it become like small pea size.
• now add the eggs to the starter and wisk them together.
• Add the yeast and egg mixture to the flour.
• Stir until it froms a ball and then knead for a few minutes.At this stage the dough doesnt look the nicest but it will turn out!
• Divide the dough in 20 peices.Roll into balls and place on a tray, let rest for 30 minutes ( or you can refridgerate till later use).
• Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Line a few baking trays with parchment paper.
• on a lightly floured surface roll out the balls of dough in a oval shape about 8-10 in long.
• Add filling to one half fold over and seal edges with a fork, continue until you have 8 patties on each cookie sheet.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until edges are golden.

Steps:

• Make the crust: Whisk flour in a medium bowl, then whisk in turmeric, sugar and salt. Work in shortening and beef suet quickly, rubbing them into the dry ingredients with your fingers until the mixture is evenly crumbly. Gradually add 1/2 cup ice cold water while stirring with your hands to form the dough. If the dough isn't coming together, add more water by the tablespoon as necessary. Form dough into a ball, cover with cling wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 2 days.
• While the dough is chilling, make the filling: Heat a large frying pan over medium, then add vegetable oil. Fry scotch bonnet peppers and onion, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 4 to 8 minutes. Season with allspice, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, soy sauce and the beef stock mixture. Cook, stirring, until most of the liquid evaporates, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a dish and let cool completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator. (The filling can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days.)
• When ready to assemble patties, heat oven to 375 degrees. Remove dough from the refrigerator and roll on a lightly floured work surface with a lightly floured pin into a 12-inch square. (Turmeric will stain a porous work surface. Roll between sheets of parchment paper if needed.) Fold dough in half to form a rectangle, then fold again the other way to form a square. Roll again into a 12-inch square. Repeat this process 3 more times, letting dough rest as needed if it's too stiff to roll. Roll to 1/8-inch thickness, then use a bowl or pastry cutter to cut out 10 (6-inch) rounds, rerolling scraps as necessary.
• Divide beef mixture among rounds, spooning about 1/4 cup onto one side of each round. Fold the other side of each round over the meat until the edges meet. Using a fork, seal the edges, then prick the center of each to allow steam to escape.
• Place patties on 1 or 2 baking sheets, and bake until pastry is set and golden, 22 to 25 minutes. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
