Cook Time

Cook time for this curry puff filling recipe takes about 30 minutes.

Ingredient

For the filling, you'll need:
  • 1 pound ground chicken or beef
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 large potato, peeled and diced
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
  • 1/2 cup chicken or beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
For the pastry, you'll need:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
  • 1/2 cup cold water

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Rolling pin
  • Cookie cutter or cup
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper

Method

  1. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the ground chicken or beef to the skillet, and cook until browned, about 10 minutes.
  3. Add the curry powder, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and cayenne pepper to the skillet, and stir until well combined.
  4. Add the diced potato, peas, and chicken or beef broth to the skillet, and stir until well combined. Cover the skillet, and let the mixture simmer until the potatoes are soft, about 15 minutes.
  5. Season the filling with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the skillet from the heat, and let the filling cool completely.
  6. While the filling is cooling, make the pastry. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Add the diced butter to the bowl, and use your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
  7. Gradually add the cold water to the bowl, and use a fork to stir until the mixture forms a dough.
  8. On a well-floured surface, roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/4 inch. Use a cookie cutter or cup to cut out circles of dough.
  9. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  10. Place a spoonful of the cooled filling onto each circle of dough. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape, and use a fork to crimp the edges of the dough together. Repeat until all the filling and pastry has been used up.
  11. Place the curry puffs onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and crispy.
  12. Remove the curry puffs from the oven, and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Curry puffs are best served warm and fresh, but can also be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply place the curry puffs in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-10 minutes, or until warmed through.
