'Gunpowder' lamb patties recipe
- 500 g (17.6oz) lamb mince
- 4 green chillies, finely chopped
- 1 onion, finely diced
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.33 tsp garam masala
- 0.5 tsp ground coriander
- 0.5 tsp chilli powder
- 150 ml (5.3fl oz) water
- 375 g (13.2oz) ready-made puff pastry
- 2 tsp onion seeds
- 1 egg mixed with a little milk, for glazing and sealing
- In a large pot over a medium to high heat, cook the lamb, chillies, onion, salt, garam masala, ground coriander and chilli powder with the water until it reaches a rolling simmer and the meat has changed colour to a light brown; break up the mince to check there are no flashes of raw lamb.
- You should allow at least 15 minutes for this step of the process.
- Once cooked, pour the liquid away and leave the meat to cool.
- Preheat the oven to 180C/gas mark 4.
- Roll the puff pastry out on a floured surface to a rectangle of 30cm x 40cm.
- Slice down the middle lengthways, ending up with two long pieces.
- Place the pieces on a large greased baking tray.
- Fill the middle of each the sheet lengthways with a generous portion of lamb, leaving enough pastry either side of the filling to fold over and envelope it.
- Seal the edge with a little milk, making sure none of the mixture escapes.
- Take a fork and lightly drag it in diagonal strokes across the top of the long pastry roll, then brush the surface with milk/egg whipped glaze and sprinkle the onion seeds over the top.
- Cut each strip into 7 or 8 individual parcels.
- Bake the lamb pastries for 1520 minutes, turning the baking tin halfway through to allow the patties to cook evenly.
- Once the patties have a golden glaze and are puffed up, dish on to rack and allow them to rest for 10 minutes before serving these Indian style sausage rolls.
