Wasn’t expecting to finish that, but here I am 20 min later. No regrets, definitely r/mademesmile material

As a Canadian, of course I do, but I've always loved these CBC shorts. There are a ton of them if you are looking for a new rabbit hole. :)

Oh my gosh!!!!! In middle school I had a Jamaican bestie and her mom would make them and I’ve never had them gain after we graduated and went to separate high schools. I want to make them! It’s been 25yrs…. Dang I’m old! Lol.

Looks great, but I’ve never been able to achieve the flakiness I wanted from making these at home

I've watched some folks on YouTube do these and they roll out the dough, top it with cold butter, fold it over and roll it out again. These truly look like a labor of love

Ooh. I have been craving these. I recently bought some frozen ones at Costco, but they are terrible. Yours looks amazing. https://i.imgur.com/e28Tzs0.jpg

If you can find Golden Krust brand ones, they're good. I say that having never had a real one.

Those are the same ones they sell at the “corner store in the hood” or at a hotdog cart. They are definitely better than the Costco ones, but no way as good as my man’s homemade one posted here.

Ontario or Jamaica? They both have the best patties in the world.

Is this corn based pastry? looks really good

ehxy OP t1_jduzq8u wrote

Nay, I added curry and a lil extra tumeric to the flour to give it the colour and a little bit of a kick!

Oh my friend. You're missing out on a world of flavor

I got a bag of masa harina so I could do it, nbd!

dimsum2121 t1_jdxsq58 wrote

Oh I'm not saying it can't be done with corn, just saying if oc hasn't yet had beef patties, then it's a shame and they're missing out.

Not shaming the masa, I love corn in all its forms

Ever since I saw the Good Eats episode about pasties, I've been wanting to make these. It's such a simple, portable, and surprisingly healthy food.

This one's ground beef, curry, salt, worchestershire sauce, bread crumbs, peppa sauce, garlic, scotch bonnet, onion, cayenne, onion powder, garlic, all spice and simmered for about 45 minutes in beef broth and of course, salt.

Those look a bit overstuffed. You could probably make 2 from that amount of meat.

These are pasties no?

Based on a Roman tin-miners lunch.

Steev182 t1_jdvghh7 wrote

They’re similar, maybe a bit more like a Gregg’s bake in form factor, but I find the crust on these not as tough as a Cornish pastie - that said, I don’t remember the last time I was down a mine holding a pastie by its crimped edge…

However, I’m in NYC, where it seems like nobody sells Cornish pasties, these are a good alternative.

You’re not supposed to eat the crust on a Cornish pasty. That’s for holding it.

There was a Australian here on reddit trying to tell us pasties we’re invented in Perth before WW1. He got shut down pretty quick. The romans apparently beat the Australians to it.
