[Review] Port Royal Jamaican Salt Fish Patty

A Jamaican patty is a pastry that contains various fillings and spices baked inside a flaky shell, often tinted golden yellow with an egg yolk mixture or turmeric.

It is made like a turnover, but is more savoury and filled with meat.
(quoted from Wiki)
Normally I get fresh patties from Jamaican shops but you can also find ready made Jamaican patties by Port Royal at the supermarket so I decided to try them.
The Jamaican Salt Fish Patty can only be found at the larger supermarkets and the salt fish is seriously worth trying because it tastes like bacalhau which is also salted fish mixed with the vegetable filling.
The saltiness is just right and not too salty or fishy so highly recommended.



[Review] The Original Patty Co. Jerk Chicken Jamaican Patty

Normally I get fresh patties from Jamaican shops but you can also find ready made Jamaican patties by The Original Patty Co. at ASDA so I decided to try them.
There were so many flavours to choose from but as I have not tried Jerk Chicken in a patty, I got the The Original Patty Co. Jerk Chicken Jamaican Patty.
It was like a jerk version of chicken tikka with a fiery note so definitely recommended if you like spicy flavours.

[Review] Port Royal Jamaican Lamb Patty

I love Jamaican patties and there are many brands about for the ready to eat ones as well as fresh patties available at Jamaican shops.
As I have not come across the Port Royal brand before I decided to try it.
After microwaving it for 50 seconds it was hot and the pastry was soft which did not bother me.
Ideally, if you put it in the oven then you would get a lovely flaky texture.
For those who are not keen on lamb, it can smell a bit gamey but the spices are really appetizing so it makes the minced lamb tasty.
I definitely recommend these Port Royal patties as they have other flavours like spicy beef, jerk chicken and salt fish.
Ideally I want to try the salt fish but haven't seen it any where.

[Review] Jamaican Miracle Peanut Punch

Spotted Peanut Punch at the newsagent so decided to try it, as well as peanut punch the Miracle brand also had Eggnog.
Miracle is a Jamaican brand so I was excited in trying it as I love Caribbean and Jamaican food.

Taking a sip of the peanut punch, I found it quite thick and was hit by intense flavours of peanut as well as condensed milk so it was quite sweet and aromatic yet very different to peanut butter.
I would definitely recommend trying this drink or diluting it with milk or vegan milk if you find it too sweet.
