Now here's one of the recipe from my favourite Nyonya collection, "Curry Puffs".
I enjy most of the curry puffs selling outside, and i always hope to make those myself one day.
Yeah, this was the first time making curry puffs..;p Not bad ha! I'll give myself a thumbs up for this...;=p
There is not much trouble to prepare this puffs but the washing part was..."sigh"..:( By then i'll wish i have a helper..haha! Ok ok, here goes the recipe and method......

~ Wrap up the filling and seal the edge by pinching the edge like picture no. 4

Somehow, after trying, i find my fillings are not spicy enough. So if you like, do add more chilli paste to spice up. Try it out and let me know how is it..;)
