Ingredients
Method
Make the Dough
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the egg and water.
- Knead the mixture until a smooth dough forms, about 5-7 minutes. Cover and let it rest for 15 minutes.
Prepare the Filling
- In a skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the ground beef, paprika, black pepper, and cinnamon. Cook until the meat is browned and fully cooked. Set aside to cool.
Form the Dumplings
- Roll out the rested dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick.
- Cut the dough into 2-inch squares. Place a small amount of filling in the center of each square.
- Fold the corners of the square towards the center and pinch to seal, forming a dumpling.
Cook the Dumplings
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the dumplings in batches and cook for 5-7 minutes or until they float to the surface.
- Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Prepare the Yogurt Sauce
- In a bowl, mix the yogurt with minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt until well combined.
Serve
- Plate the dumplings and drizzle with the yogurt sauce. Sprinkle sumac and chopped parsley on top before serving.
