Instructions: 

  • In a food processor pulse together flour, butter, salt and curry powder.
  • Lightly beat your egg and mix with water and vinegar. Slowly and we mean SLOWLY, pour liquids into the food processor and pulse until a loose dough has formed. Transfer onto a work surface and kneed until smooth. Wrap in plastic and allow to rest in the fridge for at least 1h.
  • In a large frying pan over medium-low heat, sauté garlic and onion in a tablespoon of butter or canola oil. Once translucent in colour, add ground beef and spices. Once cooked, add stock and set aside and allow to cool.
  • Remove dough from plastic. Roll dough until it's as thick as a poker chip. Using a circle cookie cutter or mug, punch circles. Add about a tbsp of meat filling. Try not to over fill, it might take some trial and error but you'll find the perfect amount. Fold in half, with a fork crimp seams closed.
  • Bake at 350 for 20 min or deep fry at 350F until golden brown.
  • Combine sour cream and lime zest and drizzle over hot patties.
