Whole-wheat Meat Pies Recipe

Ingredients:

For the dough:
1 ½ cup whole-wheat flour
1 teaspoon yeast
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon corn oil
½ cup drinking yogurt (laban)
some water to soften the dough
More water for brushing
1 tablespoon black seed

For the filling:
200g ground veal, fat trimmed
1 onion, chopped
1 tomato, chopped
½ teaspoon of each (salt, black pepper)
1 tablespoon corn oil

Steps:

1) To make the dough, mix the dry ingredients then add the drinking yogurt, oil and some water. Knead the mixture until a soft dough is formed. Cover the dough for an hour and leave to rise in a warm place.

2) Meanwhile, prepare the filling by mixing the meat with onions, tomatoes, corn oil, salt and black pepper.

3) Divide the dough into small balls (the size of small lemons) then roll them into circles.

4) Add a tablespoon of the filling into the center of each circle and fold over to cover the filling; seal well and arrange in a baking tray. Brush the pies with water and sprinkle with black seeds.

5) Bake in a preheated oven 400 F (200 C) for 15 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.
