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.
