[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.

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] Island Delight Jamaican Patties - Lamb & Jerk Chicken

The Lamb and Chicken were purchased from Sainsburys.

It is best to put them in the over as microwaving it will result in a soft pastry.
As I just couldn't wait, I microwaved it as I wasn't bothered about the soft pastry.
There was a reasonable amount of filling in the middle with a good level of spices in it that wasn't really spicy.
The lamb meat was a bit chewy, not top quality meat but overall worth trying.
The jerk chicken fared much better and the chicken was really tasty.
Attended IFE2022 so I got to sample the Salt Fish which is now my new favourite because the filling is really flavourful but in a fishy way.
