Ingredients
Dough
- 1 ¾ cup flour all purpose
- ¾ cup warm water (about 100'F)
- 2 tsp yeast rapid rise
- 1 tsp sugar
- 2 tsp salt
Filling
- 8 oz lamb ground
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 onion dices
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 Roma tomato cored, seeded, and diced
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp allspice
- ¾ tsp zatar
- 1 Tbsp Curly parsley chopped for garnish
- 1 egg beaten with 1 Tbsp. water for egg wash
- ½ tsp nigella seeds for sprinkling
Instructions
- In a large bowl place flour and salt and mix well.
- In a small bowl place the warm water (the water should be between 100-110'F)). Add the yeast and sugar, stir lightly and let it sit until frothy ( this will take about 5-10 minutes).
- Add the yeast mixture to the flour and blend well until a soft dough forms.
- Rub a deep bowl with olive oil and place the dough inside the oven. Cover and let it sit until double in size (between 1-2 hours).
- Preheat oven to 400'F
- Turn dough onto a floured surface. Punch down and knead for about 5 minutes.
- Roll dough into the shape of a cylinder, and cut into 6 equal parts.
- To make the filling, heat the oil in a non stick skillet and saute the onion and garlic until translucent. Add the tomatoes, and the ground lamb.
- Use a spatula to break lamb into small pieces, and sprinkle in the salt, allspice and zatar.
- Cook completely.
- Divide the dough into 4 equal parts, and roll out each part into a 9" x 3" oval.
- Place filling down the center of the oval and then brush around the edges with the egg wash.
- Pinch the top and bottom of the oval to create a boat shape, and fold sides inwards.
- Place individual fatayer on a baking sheet that has been sprinkled with cornmeal. Sprinkle each individual fatayer with nigella seeds.
- Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until fatayer appears golden and crispy. Garnish each fatayer with chopped parsley.
