To prepare, simply heat the patty until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is thoroughly warmed. This can be done in an oven, toaster oven, or microwave, though oven heating generally yields the crispiest crust. Ensure the patty is heated through before serving. They are often enjoyed on their own or can be served with a side salad or rice and peas for a more substantial meal. Some people enjoy them with a side of hot sauce.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to other beef patties, the Jamaican style is distinguished by its unique spice blend, which typically includes allspice and thyme, and often a noticeable level of heat from Scotch bonnet peppers. The pastry is also usually a vibrant yellow due to the inclusion of turmeric or annatto.
