Notes about this recipe

    This was very good and should have been easy. I didn't cook my potatoes long enough and I didn't heed the type of potatoes to use. As a result, it was hard to rice them and made a simple project rather complicated. For the beef, I wanted it to pack more of a punch so I went rogue, adding garam masala, cayenne pepper, and powdered ginger. The result was superb. I would happily make this again and my family would happily eat it all over again.

    For the potato dough, I had 1.2 kg potatoes and used the full amount of other ingredients, which worked fine. For the filling, I just had 450 g ground beef so I reduced the spices accordingly (with full amounts of onion and water). There was plenty of beef relative to potato. Overall, the pastel turned out well, but I thought the "sweet" spices (cinnamon, allspice) were a little strong, but that also could be my ras el hanut (I used an Epicurious recipe). My family liked it pretty well and I might make it again with spice adjustments.
