jamie oliver on ch4 is not been fair

[issey6cats]

by cooking Jamaican patties and making me want to go to Asda to get the ingredients to make some for myself mmmm

I love them!

Ready ones, i never made them myself.

YANBU

DP's mum does them (Jamaican family) and they're absolutely scrumptious - we've got here a pasty maker from Lakeland for Christmas

4oz plain flour, 1oz butter, turmeric, cold water for the pastry

Then, cook an onion, some (quorn) mince and peas (the little green variety, not the "rice and peas" variety) with some spices - curry powder is the main one

Roll out pastry, cut into rounds, fill, fold, bake for 15 minutes

*her

And it's only because she likes useful pressies and we want her to make them more often

STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT

goes to raid cupboard

So they're like samosas then?

exactly like a samosa but shortcrust pastry rather than flaky/puff/filo

patties are lush
ditto ackee and saltfish
yum

Sounds yum actually, might have to try those

I've got some veggie ones in the fridge, from Sainsbo's rather than homemade though.

I'm more pissed offwith him making me want to go that restaurant and cider farm when its so close and I'm skint!

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm dumplings.

I will now be making dumplings for breakfast tomorrow, providing DP can be persuaded to pop out for baked beans

ooh remus is near our sainsbos tommorow might have a scout round there and have me patties for tea tommorow night purpledjin the pepperpot the mom cooked looked fab do you have a recipe for that

I didn't actually see the programme, I'm just loving being in a multi cultural relationship with a MIL who likes to cook as much as I do

This looks yummy though

I bookmarked that cake, the other day. Looks rather delicious.

What was the pork thing he made at the end of the programme?

Oh I haven't seen a Jamaican patty since we left London. 6 YEARS!!!! Oh how I miss them.

Thank you sooo much for posting on this. And a recipe.

I thought it was a personal obsession. I have left London for Switzerland and I can't believe how much I miss patties. And my local Jamaican takeaway, and my best mates Goat curry.

I was trying to watch "Topboy" and there were times I couldn't follow the story, mainly because the characters were sitting outside the street "patty wagon" and I was just watching the patties all warming in the background.
