Method
- Heat oil and sauté onions and garlic. Add in curry paste and powder. Toss in shredded chicken followed by potatoes. Season with salt, pepper and sugar. Cook till a little dry then slowly add in water and let simmer till potatoes are soft and the curry is dry. Cool before using.
- To make the pastry, combine all the ingredients for water dough and knead until pliable and not sticky. Divide the pastry into two portions and round into balls, then cover and leave to rest for 30 minutes.
- For the oil dough, rub butter into flour and slowly combine into a soft dough. Add water if necessary. Knead by hand until shiny and smooth, then divide the pastry into two portions and round into balls. Cover and rest for 15 minutes.
- Wrap oil dough with water dough. Flatten into a thin sheet using a rolling pin and roll up like a swiss roll. Turn the roll 90 degree upwards so that the end faces up and roll out again thinly. Roll the dough into a swiss roll once more and by using a sharp knife, cut out round discs. Flatten each disc and place filling and a piece of egg in the centre. Wrap up and pinch the edges to seal, then crimp the edges with thumb and forefinger. Deep-fry in hot oil until golden brown.
