| Mushroom and spinach quiche Lyell and me made last weekend |
Anyone who has visited, lived or grown up in Goa has has the famous beef pattice. It is delicious mince and puff pastry goodness, baked to perfection. Its available in almost every corner tea shop or bakery in Goa, and there are a lot of them in Goa.
The true test of a good pattice is in the the puffed pastry. The downside of living so far away from Goa is that if I want to eat one, I have to make it myself.
Good thing for me, I learnt how to make them from my mum while I was still in Goa. My mum regularly conducts cooking and baking classes where she can teach you to make perfect melt-in-your-mouth pastries. She demonstrates how to make all kinds of pastry right from puffed pastry for pattice to choux pastry for eclairs(profiteroles as they are called in Australia) to shortcrust pastry for your quiches and tarts!
