3. Finely chop the remaining onion and sauté it with the rest of the lamb, pine nuts, and remaining spices until the meat is browned and the mixture is dry.
4. With wet hands, shape the bulgur paste into oval shells, fill each with a spoonful of the meat mixture, and seal completely.
5. Heat the oil to 180°C and fry the kubba in batches until deep golden and crisp, about 4 to 5 minutes.
