Chicken Curry Puff
Chicken Curry Puff is a delicious and popular snack that originates from Southeast Asia. It's a savory pastry filled with a mixture of diced chicken, potatoes, onions, and a flavorful curry sauce. The filling is then wrapped in a flaky, golden-brown pastry and usually served hot. It's a tasty and satisfying treat that's perfect for snacking or as an appetizer.
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breast boneless, diced
- 1/2 pound potatoes peeled and diced
- 1/4 pound onion finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1/4 teaspoon chili powder (optional for spice lovers)
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the pastry:
- 2 pounds puff pastry sheets thawed if frozen
- 1 egg beaten, (for egg wash)
Instructions
- In a pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onions, and sauté until they become translucent.
- Add the diced chicken to the pan and cook until it's no longer pink. Make sure to stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Add the diced potatoes to the pan and cook until they are tender. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
- Sprinkle the curry powder, turmeric powder, cumin powder, chili powder (if desired), salt, and pepper over the chicken and potato mixture. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Let it cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Remove the pan from heat and let the filling cool down completely.
- Preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the puff pastry package instructions.
- Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut the pastry into circles or squares of your desired size, depending on how big or small you'd like the puffs to be.
- Spoon a generous amount of the cooled filling onto one half of each pastry piece, leaving some space around the edges.
- Fold the other half of the pastry over the filling and press the edges together to seal. You can use a fork to crimp the edges if you'd like a decorative touch.
- Brush the tops of the pastry with the beaten egg to give them a golden-brown color when baked.
- Place the prepared puffs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each puff.
- Bake in the preheated oven for the time specified on the puff pastry package instructions, or until the puffs are puffed up and have a nice golden color.
- Once baked, remove the puffs from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
