I know them more as turnovers, in Latin America and other parts they would be empanadas. In Jamaica as well as large parts of the Caribbean they are patties:<br /> <br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamaican_patty<br /><br />Still, whatever they are called they are always good! I used to love getting veggie pasties back in England and this version in particular is fantastic :-)Debbiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17733503025531290452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7608706408360417857.post-80668460785639569362011-09-17T02:08:49.500+01:002011-09-17T02:08:49.500+01:00Not sure how they class as <i>patties</i> myself, more like a <b>pasty</b> if you ask me. But things differ around the world. ☺Amateur Cookhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01859831380059149827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7608706408360417857.post-70613059703022608082009-08-22T09:21:32.321+01:002009-08-22T09:21:32.321+01:00This does look really really good. Something you could even take into work for lunch. I haven&#39;t seen the book in any of the bookshops yet, so I think an order to Amazon may be due.mangocheekshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03602971207085826708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7608706408360417857.post-78737066061805545312009-08-20T21:29:07.165+01:002009-08-20T21:29:07.165+01:00Mandee - how cool that your local library has such a recent vegan cookbook??? That&#39;s great, mine might have 1 Vegetarian cookbook from the late 70&#39;s :) I have loved Vegan Soul Kitchen, so healthy!<br /><br />Jessica - thanks so much for your comment!! Love your blog too - jealous, it looks lovely there:):) I forgot all about that coffee cake, I may just have to attempt to veganize that one, it was yum!Debbiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17733503025531290452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7608706408360417857.post-68015943690814342292009-08-20T15:55:04.693+01:002009-08-20T15:55:04.693+01:00Your blog makes vegan food look SO good! I am (sadly, still)omnivorous but I cook a lot of vegetarian and vegan food for our houseguests and friends. The concept of vegetarianism has still not really caught on in Greece, but we&#39;re working on it!<br /><br />I found you because a houseguest brought me a bottle of Camp&#39;s coffee and chicory essence and your cake looks divine! I WILL be making it.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Jessica [truestarr]truestarrhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00147210730080999426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7608706408360417857.post-60135513600904291552009-08-20T02:01:32.643+01:002009-08-20T02:01:32.643+01:00That looks like a really good meal.
