It’s Easter break in schools and my elder one is at home with me. I am finding it very difficult to bake and post every day as the lazy me didi not planned well and had to bake now each day. So all these savoury bakes I am making in lunch for us to finish them off without getting spoiled or wasted. I used soya keema to make the filling and when my daughter tried she thought it was some non-veg filling in it and refused to eat it. I had to convince her that it is your favourite soy nuggets in minced form then only she ate the Jamaican patties. Frankly, it did taste like on veg filling but was very flavorful and delicious.

It's amazing how one similar looking dish is known by so many different names world over. Love the filling and the patties are perfectly shaped. It surely is a challenge to bake and post the same day, quite exhausting actually. You are doing great though 🙂
