Method

Pastry Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add cold water, mixing until a dough forms. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

  1. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    In a skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and garlic, sauté until soft. Add ground beef and cook until browned. Stir in Scotch bonnet pepper, thyme, allspice, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.

Assembly and Baking

  1. 3

    Assemble the Patties

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into circles of about 5 inches in diameter. Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each circle. Fold over and crimp the edges to seal.

  2. 4

    Bake the Patties

    Place the patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
