Curry Puff With Potato Filling

Hi this was an impromptu or should i say i felt like making it at the time... the filling was made up with what ever i had:)

Filling :

500g potato, peeled and diced

1 medium size onion, diced

2 tsp of garlic, crushed

1 tsp ginger

curry powder, to your liking

Salt and pepper

coriander

250 coconut milk

Dough:

Water dough:

200ml oil

120g shortening

200ml water

640g plain flour

oil dough:

200g plain flour

120g shortening

Method

Filling- mix curry powder with some oil to make a paste. In a hot pan/ pot with a little oil fry off the paste with the garlic, ginger and the onions, till fragrant. then add in the potato and coat it with the paste. add the coconut milk and bring up to the boil, add Salt and pepper and then simmer till its cook (you might need to add a little water or veg stock while cooking, when needed) when the potatoes are cooked but not mushy fold in the coriander and set a side to cool and chill.

water Dough- mix everything in a bowl till it forms a dough, portion it to 100g each

Oil dough- make sure the shortening is room temperature rub in the flour, and portion in to the same amount of water dough you have

then roll out the water dough, round and put the oil dough in the middle and seal the dough. press down the dough and roll it, oval and roll it up like a swiss roll and turn it where the swirly part is facing up and on the beach press it down and roll it, oval and roll it up like a swiss roll. ( repeat the same process with the other water and oil dough). leave it to rest for 20-30 mins.

For a smaller curry puff cut the dough so that you can see the spiral, place the cut side down press down and roll in to an oval shape put some filling in the middle and pleat the sides.

in hot oil of 160-170C fry the pastries till golden brown, served hot or warm. with a coffee or tea :)

enjoy:)
