Method

  1. 1 Knead the flour with water and salt for 12 minutes, then divide into balls, grease with oil, and let rest for 2 hours.
  2. 2 Pull each pellet into a thin, translucent sheet on the oil-smeared table.
  3. 3 Sauté the minced lamb with leeks, scallions, and baharat for 10 minutes, then let cool and mix in the beaten eggs.
  4. 4 Place the filling in the center of the dough sheet, then fold the four edges to form a sealed square package — the egg in the filling acts as a binder and should not be removed.
  5. 5 Pan-fry in oil for 4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy, then cut into squares.

With an appliance

  • Air fryer 55 min

    Step 5: Brush oil on both sides and bake at 195 degrees for 12 minutes, turning at the 7th minute. The crust will be crispier but less puffed, so brush with a thicker layer of oil than usual.
