Step:

  1. COOK FILLING: I made a separate post regarding this, as putting everything in one post gets overwhelming. Check out my Chicken Curry Puff Filling post.

  2. DOUGH DRY: in a large mixing bowl, mix together Flour, Salt and Margerine. Make the Margerine is mixed well by rubbing the Margerine and Flour with your hands.

  3. DOUGH WET: add in the Heated Cooking Oil and mix well. Next, SLOWLY add the Cold Water, making sure it's mixed well a little at a time, and knead it until it forms a workable, pliable dough. Then let it rest for 30 minutes, covered.

  4. DOUGH BALL: cut off a gold ball size of dough and arrange it. On a flat work surface, dust the the area with Flour to prevent sticking. Take 1 ball and spread to 1/4 inch thick. It can't be too thin or it won't hold the filling.

  5. FILL: take a spoonful of Filling and place it in the middle of the dough ball, avoiding the edges. Then, fold the dough and close the edges neatly.

  6. CRIMP: starting from either ends, 1) pinch the edges outwards to form a ridge. 2) Then fold the ridge at an angle, away from the starting point. 3) Next continue the pinch the next section until you reach the far end. PIC: clockwise from top left.

  7. DEEP FRYING: heat 2 cups or more of Cooking Oil until hot. Deep fry the Curry Puffs until golden. Serve hot. TIP: you don't have to cook the Curry Puffs immediately, you can save them in the fridge until you want it. Cooked Curry Puffs get soggy with time.
