Buuz Recipe

• For Meat Filling
• 300 g Beef or Mutton (minced)
• 1 medium Onion (chopped)
• Salt (to taste)
• Pepper (ground, to taste)
• 2 Garlic Cloves (crushed)
• Herbs (chopped, optional)
  
  For Dough
• 250 g Wheat Flour
• A pinch of Salt
• Lukewarm Water

• Add a pinch of salt to enough lukewarm water required to knead dough.
• Add water to the flour and knead to form smooth, soft dough. Set the dough aside.
• After sometime, knead the dough again and cut into small pieces.
• Roll each piece into a ball. Repeat with other pieces and leave them in a bowl.
• Sprinkle some flour on the balls, to avoid them sticking to each other.
• Take a large mixing bowl and combine minced meat, onion, garlic, salt, pepper and other herbs together.
• Add some water, if required, to make the filling a little juicy.
• Roll out the dough balls into round circles, leaving the center thicker than the edges.
• Place a little meat filling in the center of the circle and seal the edges with your fingers.
• Boil water in a large pot.
• Dip the bottoms of each buuz in oil and place them in an inlay that will be inserted in the pot for steaming.
• Ensure that the buuz do not touch each other.
• Steam the buuz for 15 minutes.
• Open the lid and fan some air with the help of a cutting board or newspaper, to give them a reddish glossy look.
• Serve hot.
