Pate kòde (bunched patty) or pate chodyè (pot patty) is the street-food (fritay) version of the Haitian patty (Pâté Ayisyen). It is commonly served in a form of an empanada and is deep fried.[7] The traditional stuffings used in the preparation of the Pate Kòde include diced meat accompanied with sautéed onions and green bell peppers, boiled eggs, pikliz, and shredded cabbage.[8][9]
