  DOUGH: In large bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, curry powder,
  tumeric, and salt. Cut in shortening and butter until crumbly.
  Drizzle in water, stirring with fork and adding up to 2 tb more water
  if necessary, to make a soft dough. Form into a ball and flatten to a
  disc. Wrap and chill for 1 hour.*(Can be refrigerated for up to 5
  days or frozen for up to 3 weeks.)*
  
  FILLING: In skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; cook onion, green
  onions, garlic and cayenne pepper for 3 minutes or until softened.
  Remove with slotted spoon and set aside. Over high heat, saute beef
  for 5 minutes or until no longer pink; drain off fat. Return onion
  mixture to pan along with curry powder, thyme, tumeric, salt and
  pepper; cook for 3 minutes over medium heat. Pour in water; bring to
  a boil. Add crumbs; simmer for 3 minutes or until slightly thickened
  but still juicy. Let cool. *(Can be covered and refrigerated for up
  to 1 day.)*
  
  Divide dough into 16 pieces. On floured pastry cloth and using
  stockinette-covered rolling pin, roll out each piece into 5-inch
  circle. Brush edges of top half with water; place 2 heaping tbsp of
  filling in the centre. Fold in half, pressing edges togther with fork
  to seal. Prick twice; place on ungreased baking sheet. *(Patties can
  be covered and refrigerated for up to 1 day.)* Bake in 375 F oven for
  about 20 minutes or until crisp and golden.
