Its versatility makes it an excellent choice for various meals, from a hearty lunch to a fulfilling dinner or a novel addition to game night. Embrace the essence of Mongolian cuisine with a plant-based approach, exploring new textures and flavors that cater to both vegans and non-vegans alike.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup cooked lentils
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Oil for frying

Steps:

  1. In a large bowl, mix flour, salt, and water to form a dough. Knead until smooth and elastic, then let rest for 20 minutes.
  2. Heat oil in a pan, sauté onions and garlic until translucent. Add carrots, lentils, coriander, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes.
  3. Roll the dough into a thin sheet, cut into circles. Place a spoonful of filling on each, fold and seal the edges.
