Curry Puffs Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Ponikuta / All my dishes 2 years, 4 months ago Another all time favorite dish from Malaysia. The only problem is that it takes a little patience to make the dough.

Ingredients

5 tbsp oil

1 medium red onion (chopped finely)

1/2 tsp kurma powder or chicken curry powder

2 tsp meat or chicken curry powder

1 tsp chili powder

1/2 tsp turmeric powder

1/2 cup of finely diced chicken meat (breast or thigh)

3 large potatoes (boiled and diced finely)

1 1/2 tsp sugar

1/2 tsp black pepper or white pepper

1/2 salt

PASTRY:

500g (1lb) plain flour

150g (5 oz) margarine or shortening

3/4 cup water

1/2 tsp salt

Directions

To make pastry, mix flour with margarine, water, salt and knead well.

Let it rest for 1/2 hour.

While waiting for the dough, heat oil and fr onion gently until golden brown.

Add the kurma powder, curry powder, chili, turmeric and fry gantly.

Add the chicken, potatoes, sugar, pepper, salt and cook for 5 minutes.

Mix well and leave aside to cool.

Cut the dough into circles (3 inches) in diameter when it is done.

Pre-heat the oven if you decide to bake instead of deep frying at 180c.

Fold pastry over to make a half circle and crimp at edges with egg white.

Deep fry in oil until golden or bake 15-20 mins at 180c.

TIP: Alternatively, you can buy pre-made pastry puff/dough instead of rolling the pin. Also, you can use a chicken rice bowl as a guide to cut into 3inch in diameter circles. Adding peas into the filling is a good idea to make the mouth feel of the snack more crunchier. You can use a fork to press down to seal the puff instead of crimping it. Brush egg yolk on the puffs if you want to bake it to give it the golden finish.
