Ingredients

Method

  1. In a bowl, mix the flour, yeast, and salt. Add the warm water and mix until a dough forms. Knead for 10 minutes, then let it rise for 1 hour.
  2. In a pan, cook the ground meat and onions with oil until the meat is browned. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Roll out the dough into a large flatbread shape. Spread the meat mixture over the dough, then fold the edges to form a pocket.

  5. Serve the pide with a side of yogurt and garnished with dill.
