Directions
- 1
In a large bowl, combine the warm milk, sugar, eggs, and yeast. Let rest for 5 minutes until foamy.
- 2
Add the oil, then gradually incorporate the flour and salt. Knead for about 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic, dusting with flour if it sticks.
- 3
Shape into a ball, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm spot for 40 minutes until doubled in size.
- 4
Finely dice (0.5 cm) the tomato, onion, and all three bell peppers. Set aside.
- 5
Briefly sauté the ground beef over high heat for 2–3 minutes, just until it loses its pink color — do not fully cook through. Season with salt and let cool.
- 6
Mix the beef with the lemon juice, tomato, onion, and bell peppers. Let the filling rest 20 minutes, then drain in a colander to remove excess liquid.
- 7
Preheat oven to 200 °C (390 °F). Divide the dough into 25 small balls. Flatten each into a disc about 8 cm wide.
- 8
Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each disc. Fold and pinch the edges to form a triangle or open boat shape.
- 9
Place on a lined baking sheet and bake 15–20 minutes until lightly golden.
💡 Chef's Tip
Chef's tip: to check if the dough is ready, drop a small piece into a glass of water — when it floats to the surface, it's time to shape! The dough keeps in the fridge for up to 3 days in a sealed container.
