This is a great base recipe. Delicious made as is....even better with modifications. After reading other reviews I added more spices to make it taste like the Jamaican restaurant in town. I used 3 tsp red curry, 1 tsp each of: Jamaican All Spice, cloves, paprika, turmeric & red chili powder. Also added chopped jalapenos and garlic. It was still missing something, so added 2 TBS sugar and that hit the spot. I used iced chicken broth instead of water...and only butter-flavored Crisco (no butter) ...for the dough. Cooled all dough ingredients & bowl before cutting it together. I used a tortilla press to make press out the dough evenly and thin. It baked up nice and fluffy. I made both beef and chicken patties & family/friends loved it. Thanks JEFFOLEE for posting!
