A Flavorful Celebration

In this video, we celebrate the irresistible magic of Middle Eastern ingredients and cooking techniques, transporting you to a rustic outdoor kitchen where every moment is steeped in authenticity. As we knead our dough and blend bold spices into savory fillings, you’ll see the art of fire cooking transform humble ingredients into something extraordinary.

🌟 Ingredients:

For the Dough:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 3/4 cup warm water
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

For the Filling:

• 1 cup ground meat (lamb or beef)
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon allspice
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley or coriander, chopped, for garnish

🔥 Cooking Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough:

   • In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder.
   • Gradually add warm water and olive oil, kneading until the dough is smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rest for 30 minutes.

2. Make the Filling:

   • In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the onions and garlic until translucent.
   • Add ground meat, cooking until browned. Stir in cumin, paprika, allspice, salt, and pepper, followed by the herbs. Cook for an additional 5 minutes and let the filling cool.

3. Stuff the Pancakes:

   • Divide the rested dough into equal portions, rolling each into a flat circle. Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each circle and fold over to create a half-moon shape, sealing the edges well.

4. Fire-Cooking the Pancakes:

   • Prepare your outdoor cooking area and get your fire going.
   • Lay the stuffed pancakes on a grate over the fire, cooking each side until they are golden and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side.

5. Serve:

   • Remove from fire and let them cool slightly. Drizzle some olive oil over the top, and garnish with fresh herbs before serving.

📝 Notes:

• Feel free to get creative with your fillings! Cheese, vegetables, or even spiced lentils make wonderful alternatives.
• Fire cooking adds a unique flavor that you simply cannot achieve indoors. If you don’t have an outdoor setup, a cast iron skillet on your stovetop works too!
