How to make it

01

Mix the mince with the finely chopped onion, salt, pepper and coriander. Add no water.

03

Boil the split peas forty minutes until soft, with a spoon of tomato paste and salt.

04

Crush the garlic with salt, stir it into the yoghurt and thin it with water to pouring consistency.

05

Roll the dough thin and cut it into eight-centimetre squares.

06

Add the filling and bring the corners together crosswise, leaving four open corners.

07

Steam twenty-five minutes. Set them on a layer of yoghurt, spoon over the pea sauce, more yoghurt, and dust with mint.
