Ingredients

Method

  1. In a bowl, mix flour, water, and salt to form a dough. Knead for 5 minutes, then let rest for 30 minutes.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine ground meat, onion, cumin, coriander, paprika, and pepper. Mix well.
  3. Divide the dough into small balls. Roll each into a thin circle, fill with meat mixture, and fold into a dumpling shape.
  4. Place dumplings in a steamer basket and steam for 25-30 minutes until cooked through.
  5. Serve with a dollop of sour cream on the side.
  6. Check that the ground meat reaches 71°C (160°F) throughout before serving.
