Ingredients Galore!
Before we dive into the kitchen, let’s gather all the magical things we’ll need to create these scrumptious curry puffs:
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 cup of unsalted butter (because who doesn’t love butter?)
- 1/4 cup of cold water
- 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
- 1 pound of ground chicken (or your meat of choice, if you want to get adventurous)
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon of curry powder (the secret weapon!)
- 1 teaspoon of soy sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 egg, beaten (for that golden finish)
Let’s Get Cooking!
Now that we have everything ready, let’s jump straight into the cooking action. Here’s how to make these delightful puffs:
- In a bowl, mix the flour and salt, then cut in the butter until crumbly. Add cold water a little at a time until the dough forms. Knead it briefly, wrap it in plastic, and let it chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, grab a skillet and heat the oil over medium heat. Toss in the onions and garlic, stirring until they start to make your kitchen smell heavenly.
- Add the ground chicken to the skillet and cook it up until it’s fully browned. Stir in the curry powder, soy sauce, and season with salt and pepper. Cook for another couple of minutes then set aside to cool.
- Once the dough has chilled, roll it out on a floured surface until it’s about 1/8 inch thick. Cut it into circles (about 3-4 inches wide) using a cookie cutter or a glass.
- Place a tablespoon of the chicken filling onto one half of each circle, then fold them over and seal the edges with a fork (like a culinary artist!).
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the puffs on a baking sheet, brush them with the beaten egg for that lovely golden sheen, and bake for 25-30 minutes until they’re crispy and golden brown.
Once done, let them cool slightly (if you can resist the temptation) and then dive in! Each bite is a wonderful explosion of flavor, and you might just find yourself in a savory bliss that makes you forget all your worries. Enjoy your Chicken Curry Puffs!
