Modo de preparo

In a bowl combine flour and salt, then gradually add water and knead into a smooth dough; cover and rest for 15 minutes.
Divide the rested dough into equal portions and roll each into a thin circle about 10 cm in diameter.
In a separate bowl mix ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, black pepper, cumin, and cilantro to form the filling.
Place a spoonful of filling in the centre of each dough circle, fold over to form a half‑moon, and press the edges firmly to seal.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium‑high heat; fry the pastries in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 4‑5 minutes per side.
Remove the fried Ishlekli onto paper towels to drain excess oil and serve hot.
