Simcooks, and Buddingcook made theirs; while Keropok Man got his bought ones.
What size of chicken curry puff do you fit in - S, M, L or XL ? Go find a fitting room now!
Mini chicken curry puff (makes 9-10 minis)
Ingredients:
-1/3 of a sheet of Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry (1 box ~ 2sheets; 1 sheet~sectioned into 3 rectangulars). The other 2/3 of a sheet was used in Chicken Strudel.
-2-3cups chicken curry (Note: use your leftover homemade chicken curry with potatos, or cook chicken curry just for this, or use your preferred curry mix and add potatos). Make sure chicken curry is dry for the curry puff (Note: wet chicken curry will make the pastry soggy)
-1 hard-boiled egg, cubed
Method:
1. Thaw pastry per box instructions (Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry)
2. Cut 1/3 from one sheet of pastry; use rolling pin to flatten the pastry slighty
3.Use any round mould (small) to cut off circular sections, use rolling pin to flatten before adding filling
4.Add filling and top with cubed eggs
5.Wrap it up like a round curry puff, and remember to "poke" some holes on the top surface (thanks to Simcooks for the "poking" tip)
6.Place in preheated oven of 400F, and bake 20-25mins
7.Out comes the minis!
Small- just slightly bigger than those Chinese New Year peanut puffs (a.k.a kok chai)
Can you see those eggs ? Can I call it Young Chang Kee...because there's egg inside. The crust is so flaky and crumbly...love it!
Medium - Not available. Uncommon sizing, so not made by me, the "manufacturer"
Large - One piece left, almost out-of stock!! Most are already gobbled up by hungry people, like me. Compare the size of the Large and Small...
Extra Large- You just have to change the filling in here to get extra-large curry puff. Who says it can't be done?

Wah... curry puffs... You just reminded me of a super yummy curry puff i had yesterday. Hope to do a post on it soon!
ReplyDeleteBtw, you are living in California? How is it over there?
A good start but there's still room for improvement (the look of the puffs). Looking fwd to the unique "Young Tay Kee" puffs. ;p
ReplyDeleteyummie dummies, welcome bac from Perth! :) ...quick..post it...i want to see what makes it super yummy;p
ReplyDeleteCalifornia ok, not too bad. But things super expensive :(
Food in Sg definitely cheaper!
omnivore, i have to make those "pimple-like craters" on the surface so that the curry puff can "breathe" while baking...and the pastry is more "Polar curry puff -type"...not "Old Chang Kee -type"...so imagine you eat "Polar Curry Puff" but with egg inside, ok?
From the first picture, I thought Old Chang Kee came to Bay Area. Then as I read on I realized it was Young Chang Kee.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, I made some kari pok too but I haven't posted. Will post in my next post.
ReplyDeleteoh no, so many tempting blogs, so little time!! :) but how can you bake them instead of deep-frying?!? not enough cholesterol! it's only good when it's unhealthy! :)
ReplyDeletesimcooks, the disfigured "chang kee"...LOL! But the crust was thin, crumbly; and the filling was warm & generous (coz I control the filling!)
ReplyDeleteRM, ur kari pok must be yummy yummy kind and can take part in beauty pageant type. Mine is yummy yummy but cannot pass the "looks" audition.
shilpa, shilpa, good to hear from you.;D I bake them not because I wanted it to be healthy...but I hate to clean the oily stove-top after the deep-frying :(
Baking them is easier.
I brushed some butter on the crust before baking...so it's unhealthy, LOL!
The rest of the real chefs are baking and making their curry puffs.
ReplyDeletePai say, I only keep posting photos of curry puffs that I buy or people bought. haha..
I like XL but without skin ones. I just want to eat the fillings!
keropok man, then you shd just cook curry chicken+potatos+hard boiled eggs, and eat...no need curry puff;p
ReplyDeleteOh you so clever! Everything can make!That solves the problem of feeling homesick for Singaporean food.
ReplyDeleteeastcoastlife, no lah, i dun make everything from scatch..usually semi- homemade -50% store bought (like the ready made pastry), and 50% homemade.
ReplyDelete"Foodsick" includes the convenience of getting Sg food!
AHHHH! You are killing me! Coordinated attacks from everyone with Curry Puff on the blog!!!
ReplyDeleteNow I'm craving for curry puff!!!
LOL! Ming_the_merciless, conspiracy attack from the blogorrist? No, no...we just happened to crave the same food at the same time! :O
ReplyDeleteCan get any curry puff (or any closest "cousin") at your area ?
