Mix the flour, turmeric, half the curry powder, and half the salt, then rub in the cold butter so small crumbs remain.
Add the cold water, bring the dough together, and rest it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Finely chop the onion, garlic, and hot pepper.
Cook the minced beef in a pan for 6 minutes until its color changes.
Add the onion, garlic, hot pepper, thyme, remaining curry powder, and salt, then cook for 6 minutes.
Add the beef stock and breadcrumbs, then cook the filling for 8 minutes until moist but not runny.
Roll out the dough, cut circles, fill them, fold into half-moons, and brush the tops with beaten egg.
Bake the patties at 190°C for 24 minutes until browned.
💡 Tip: Aim to keep the butter in cold pieces rather than melting it into the dough; warm butter makes the patty crust soft like a bun.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve the beef patties with lettuce, tomatoes, and optional hot sauce as a lunch snack or party bite.
