My mom was born in Jamaica and lived there until she moved to the United States during her university years. Cooking this Jamaican beef patty recipe in the air fryer makes it even simpler to enjoy the savory, spicy flavor and flaky pastry. —Natasha Watson, Douglasville, Georgia

Yield
8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- CRUST:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1-1/2 teaspoons curry powder
- Dash salt
- 1/2 cup cold butter
- 1/3 cup ice water
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
Directions
- In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until beef is no longer pink and onion is tender, 6-8 minutes, breaking up beef into crumbles; drain. Stir in curry powder, thyme, pepper and salt; set aside.
- For crust, in a large bowl, whisk together flour, curry powder and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add water; stir just until moistened.
- Preheat air fryer to 350°. Divide dough into 8 portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 6-in. circle. Place about 1/4 cup filling on 1 half of each circle. Fold crust over filling. Press edges with a fork to seal.
- In batches if necessary, place in a single layer on greased tray in air-fryer basket; brush with beaten egg. Cook until golden brown, 22-25 minutes. Remove to wire racks. Serve warm.
