PRATHA CURRY PUFF


Curry Filling
  • 2 potatoes/sweet potatoes - peel and diced
  • 1 tube (400gm) of Ramly's minced meat3 tbsp Baba's curry powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp Babda's Kurma powder
  • 1 onion - diced1 garlic - crushed and chopped
  • 1 stalk of curry leaves - optionalSince we are "hantu kulat" (in kelantanese speak) i.e mushrooms lover, I put fresh brown and white button mushrooms - thinly sliced.
  • Sugar and salt to taste.
Method:
  • Heat up your pan, add some cooking oil and stir fry the onion, garlic and curry leaves until fragrance.
  • Mix curry and kurma powder with a some water to make a paste. Add into the hot pan and continue cooking until the spices are done. Add minced meat, diced potatoes/sweet potatoes, sugar and salt. While you are cooking, the juice from the meat will seep out into your cooking and cook until this juice is halved then add the mushrooms.
  • Continue cooking until potatoes are soft and the filling is dry. Set aside to let cool.
Preparing The Paratha Puffs:
  • Take out the paratha puffs.Rub your hand and counter top/cutting board with some flour. This to minimize the sticky effect from the paratha puffs.
  • Cut one piece of the plain paratha into three smaller pieces as shown below. Rub all the edges with egg yolks.
Add in the filling at the centre of the piece. Fold to left and right to cover up the filling while making sure the filling is properly covered and using a fork, press the open folded edges to seal it securely.
  • Line your baking tray with some margarine and arrange your puffs on it. Rub a little of margarine and egg yolk on top of the puffs and baked in the preheated oven at 350 degree F (or 180 degree C) until golden brown.
  • It is not only easy and quick but healthier too. As a result you get a light, less-oily and crispy curry puffs with yummy fillings!!! Most suitable for moms who want to pack the kids' lunch boxes or simply serving tea to "tetamu terkejut-terkejut" who will surely impress with your cooking skill..hehehehehehe..
  • Other than curry fillings, you can also prepare hot-sardine or even lemon curd filling! I will surely try those too!
