ARABIC SAMBOOSAK
This is based on a recipe from the link http://www.nclrc.org/guides/HED/lessons/20.html, which I made after attempting recipe #173583 for the Aussie Recipe Swap #12. At the time, the recipe I had attempted was based on a very rough Arabic translation, so chef #239758 kindly turned me onto this one. I tried this Samboosak, and would recommend serving them with a sauce such as recipe #36126 -- if anyone knows of a more appropriate Arabic sauce, please let me know! :) I think they're quite good without a sauce, too!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
- To make the pastry, combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in bowl.
- Mix in oil, warm milk, and beaten eggs until a soft dough is formed.
- Cut the dough into small 2 inch balls.
- Cover and let rest for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile prepare the filling by heating the oil in a large frypan.
- Add the chopped onions, and cook until they are soft.
- Stir the ground meat into the pan and add the cumin, salt, and pepper. Fry until well cooked.
- On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the pastry balls into 4-inch round circles.
- Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of a rolled-out pastry.
- Moisten the edges, fold, and press together to seal. You may optionally roll the edges inward for a decorative effect.
- Place on a greased baking sheet.
- Repeat the previous three steps for each pastry ball.
- Bake for about 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
