Qutab

Instructions

1. Mix the flour, salt and lukewarm water until you have a soft dough, then knead for 5 minutes and let rest 30 minutes under a tea towel.
2. Fry the chopped onions in the oil, add the meat and brown it, crumbling it.
3. Add the chopped coriander and parsley, the turmeric, salt and pepper, then let the filling cool.
4. Divide the dough into 4 balls and roll each into a very thin disc about 25 cm across.
5. Place a portion of filling on one half of the disc, fold the other half over and pinch the edges shut.
6. Cook the qutab in a thick-bottomed pan lightly oiled, over medium heat, 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden and puffed in places.
7. Serve hot, cut in half or quarters.
