Method

  1. 1 Knead the flour with salt, condensed milk, and warm water for 10 minutes until a smooth, pliable dough is formed. Grease with oil and let it rest for 45 minutes.
  2. 2 Sauté minced garlic with ground beef and curry powder for 6 minutes, add diced onions and stir for another 3 minutes, then let cool.
  3. 3 Mix the filling with beaten eggs to help it bind together when fried.
  4. 4 Stretch the dough into a thin, translucent sheet, spoon the filling into the center, and fold the four edges together to form a square package.
  5. 5 Pan-fry in oil over medium heat for 4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy, then cut into squares.
  6. 6 Mix vinegar with sugar, sliced chili peppers, and cucumber to make ajat, a pickled side dish.
