keema puffs

Dishoom p. ██-██

In Bombay a puff is a tasty little pastry parcel, stuffed with minced lamb keema, spiced vegetables or another first-rate filling, not unlike a small pasty. Sassanian in Dhobi Talao serves the best ones with mutton, chicken and vegetable variations. These keema puffs will be very good with a little tamarind chutney (page 377) or even chilli chutney (page 378), but in Bombay you would eat them with good old tomato ketchup. Make sure the filling is completely cold before you assemble the puffs, otherwise the pastry will be difficult to handle.
