Ingredient !
1/2 pound of ground lamb
1/2 a small red onion finely chopped
2 tablespoon chopped cilantro
1/2 tablespoon cumin
1/2 tablespoon turmeric
1/2 tablespoon garam masala
3/4 tablespoon salt or to taste
For the dough
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon salt
1/2 tablespoon sugar
4 tablespoon melted butter
1/3 – 2/3 cup water
Preparation !
To make the filling, place the onions in a saute pan on medium heat with the ground meat and stir fry until the meat turns brown.
Once the meat is brown, turn up the heat to high, and add in the the spices and salt. After three minutes, go ahead and taste for salt, Turn off the heat, then Add the cilantro. If you used a lean cut of meat, there should be little to no oil in the pan of meat. If you do have a lot of oil in the pan, drain the meat slightly. St the meat aside and allow to cool completely.
To make the dough, sift the all purpose and whole wheat flour together, and rub in the melted butter. Add the water to the dough one table spoon at a time, until it forms a smooth dough (not sticky, but soft and pliable). I used a little over 1/2 a cup of water for my dough. Once the dough forms, allow it to rest for 5 minutes.
Divide the dough into 8 pieces once it has rested, then stuff each piece as described above.
Place a non stick pan on medium heat, and cook the flat bread in the pan for 3-5 minutes on each side. It should be nicely brown on each side.
