Ingredients and Key Notes Please look at the recipe card at the bottom of the page for a full list of ingredients, amounts, and instructions. For the Ground Beef Filling: Ground Beef: Choose the type you like best. Lean ground beef makes a healthier, less greasy filling, while regular ground beef adds a richer flavor. Yellow onion: Gives a mild sweetness and depth of flavor. You can replace it with white or red onions that have been finely chopped. Escallion: Adds a bright, mild onion flavor. It is also known as a green onion or spring onion and should be finely chopped. Thyme: Thyme is a fresh, fragrant, and flavorful herb with earthy, minty, and slightly lemony notes. It is an essential ingredient in Jamaican cooking. Scotch Bonnet Pepper: Adds a fruity, spicy heat; it's finely chopped and optional. Replace with habanero peppers or other kinds, or leave them out for a milder patty. Plain breadcrumbs: This helps the filling stay together and have a consistent texture. Seasoning: Paprika, salt, black pepper, and ground allspice create a well-balanced flavor profile. Water: Keeps the filling moist and juicy and stops it from drying out. Garlic: Freshly minced or grated garlic adds aroma and depth of flavor. Ketchup: Ketchup improves the overall flavor and adds a hint of sweetness. Browning: Provides a beef mixture with a rich brown color. Beef bouillon: Beef bouillon is an important part of the dish because it adds saltiness and umami. Salted butter: Adds more flavor and richness to the dish as a whole. For the Crust: All-Purpose Flour: Forms the main structure of the patty crust. Salt and sugar: Salt and sugar give flavor and balance to the pastry dough (patty crust). Cold shortening: This makes a flaky, layered crust; it should be very cold or almost frozen. Cold Butter: This helps make the flaky, layered crust, and it should also be very cold or near frozen. Turmeric Powder: It gives Jamaican beef patties their traditional golden color. Curry powder can be used to get a similar color, but it will change the flavor. Ice-cold water: It keeps the dough's temperature low, which leads to a tender, flaky crust. For the Egg Wash: Egg: Use one large room-temperature egg to make the surface of the patty shiny. Water: Add 1 TBSP of water to thin out the egg proteins and get a glaze instead of a thick egg layer. Recipe Variations & Suggestions for Jamaican Patties Vegetarian Patty: Use Jamaican Callaloo instead of ground beef for a meat-free alternative. Cheesy Jamaican Beef Patty: Add sliced cheddar on top of the beef prior to folding the dough to make a cheesy delight. Spicier Jamaican Beef Patty: boost the amount of Scotch Bonnet pepper for a hotter patty. Jerk Chicken Patty: Instead of the ground beef mixture, you can use shredded jerk chicken for a unique twist. Turmeric Substitutes: If you can't find turmeric, you can use curry powder or a combination of both turmeric and curry powder to get the color and flavor you want. Seafood Jamaican Patty: Add cooked shrimp or fish to the filling for a delicious seafood variation. Sweet Potato Jamaican Patty: Instead of ground beef, use a spiced sweet potato filling to make a nutritious and delicious option. Gluten-Free Jamaican Patty: Gluten-sensitive people can use a gluten-free flour blend instead of all-purpose flour in the crust. Mini Jamaican Patties: Make smaller, bite-sized patties perfect for parties and appetizers. Curry Goat Patty: Use tender, cooked curry goat meat as the filling for a more exotic and flavorful patty.

Add the ground beef, breaking up any big chunks and stirring it occasionally until it is browned. If you need to, drain the fat. Make room in the middle of the pan and add the onions, garlic, thyme, and escallion. Sauté and mix with the ground beef. Pour in 2 cups water and season the meat mixture with paprika, allspice, salt, black pepper, beef bouillon, and Scotch bonnet pepper. Add (optional) ketchup, browning, and hoisin sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer until the liquid is reduced by half and forms a thick sauce. Add the breadcrumbs, turn off the heat, and let it cool entirely. Crust (Pastry Dough) and Assembly: Mix the flour, salt, sugar, and turmeric powder in a large bowl using a whisk. Cut shortening and butter into small cubes and add them to the flour mixture. Use a dough cutter, a fork, or your fingers to combine the fat and flour into a crumbly mixture quickly. If the dough gets too warm, put it in the refrigerator to cool. Mix in enough ice-cold water to make a dough, then move it to a lightly floured surface and knead lightly until smooth. Wrap in plastic and put in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to an hour. Do not overwork the dough. Roll out the dough that has been in the fridge until it is about 1/4 inch thick on a floured surface, and use a bowl to cut out circles that are 4 to 6 inches in diameter. Put 2 or 3 tablespoons of meat filling on one side of each round, leaving a 1/2-inch border around it. Fold the other side of the dough over the filling, and then use a fork to seal the edges together. Mix the egg and water with a whisk. Place patties on a baking sheet that has been prepared, lightly brush each one with egg wash, and bake at 350°F for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the tops are golden and lightly browned.
