Meat Pie Beef Pattie with Caribbean Twist

Mix flour and Himalayan salt in a bowl.

Add grated fresh onion and black pepper to the flour mixture.

Cut frozen unsalted butter into cubes and add to the flour mixture.

Use a pastry blender to break up the butter until the mixture looks crumbly.

Gradually add ice cold water to the mixture, mixing without kneading until it comes together.

Once combined, cut the dough into two pieces, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 1-2 hours or overnight.

Heat avocado oil in a pan and add homemade green seasoning (red onion, yellow onion, green scallion).

Cook until the onions are translucent, then add diced plum tomato (skin only).

Add Goya tomato paste and fry until it changes color and is well incorporated.

Add fresh minced garlic and mix well.

Add 1 pound of washed ground beef to the pan, breaking it up until there is no pink visible.

Season the beef with dried thyme, paprika powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and mix well.

Add habanero pepper for spice, followed by soy sauce, oyster sauce, and browning, mixing thoroughly.

Taste the filling and adjust salt as needed, considering the saltiness of the soy sauce.

Finish with all-purpose seasoning to taste.
