In the chaotic kitchen of a recipe developer, you get a food blog called FoodMayhem.
I'm Jessica, an Asian-American, born and raised in NYC, and that's Lon, my Jewish, white husband. While professionally trained as a French culinary- and pastry chef, many of FoodMayhem recipes are my attempt to preserve and share authentic Chinese and Taiwanese recipes learned from my mom. We don't eat Chinese food every day, so you'll get a little bit of anything we find delicious enough to share: from our Eastern European side; recipes and techniques learned from my restaurant days; restaurant reviews, food travel tips; and a few other juicy bits along the way. Welcome to FoodMayhem!
I was trying to figure out what to do with the left-over meat mixture from the Goan Chilly Fries I made yesterday. I decided to fill it into a dough from a Jamaican Beef Patty recipe, and have an Indian-style alternative. It was pretty good. Lon said he likes the regular Jamaican Beef Patties more but still managed to eat three of these.
Dude. Looking at those just caused like, insta-hunger. I am a total sucker for anything wrapped in dough.
sounds interesting. In fact East Indians (who are residents of the West coast of India and are culturally similar to Goans) make very nice patties where they have a mince beef base, enveloped in a mashed, potato shell, coated in bread crumbs and deep fried. Yummy, though toxic
Wow, wrapped in mashed potato and deep fried, hmm…maybe next weekend…
they do taste awesome…you can add a bit of chopped green chillies, cilantro/ coriander and of course salt to season the mashed potato. We used to get them at our local butchery, Marks, and my wife and I used to refer to them as beef bombs. Will require a lot of oil though. Stuffing remains the same as what you used for your dumplings. Let me know how it went.
