Preparation of Pastries

In a pan, sauté the onion until translucent, then add minced garlic and ground meat. Season with salt and pepper, and cook until the meat is fully browned.
Place 1-2 tablespoons of the meat filling on each pastry circle, fold them in half, and seal the edges.

Baking

Arrange the pastries on a baking sheet, brush them with beaten egg, and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

Garlic Sauce Preparation

Prepare the garlic sauce by mixing yogurt with minced garlic, salt, and pepper.

Notes

Serve the meat pastries warm alongside the garlic sauce for dipping. They can be enjoyed as an appetizer or a hearty snack. For a complete meal, pair them with a fresh salad or some roasted vegetables. Ensure that the meat filling is well-seasoned for the best flavor. Don’t overfill the pastries, or they may burst during baking. You can sprinkle some sesame seeds on top of the pastries before baking for extra crunch and flavor.
