Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 pilsbury pie crust (personally i make my own, but in a pinch the store bought is fine)
2 1/4 lbs lean ground beef
1 onion, Big, Finely Chopped
1 garlic clove, Minced
1/3 cup pine nuts
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon allspice
salt, To Taste
fresh ground black pepper, To Taste
oil, For Frying
1 egg yolk

Steps:

In a pan cook the onion and garlic to golden brown, add Pine Nuts and cook for 2 minute more.
add the meat and spices, and cook on medium flame, while stirring, until the meat changes color (about 10 min.).
it is vital to stir the meat to avoid the formation of big lamps of meat.
Heat oven to 180C (350F).
Roll out the dough to 3mm and cut 10cm circles.
Put a tablespoon of filling in the middle of each circle and fold into half a circle. pinch the edges tightly.
Put sambousa in oiled and floured pan (or just use a cooking parchment).
Brush a little egg yolk on each sambusak. Bake for 30 minute or until golden brown.

Tips:

Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the sambousa will taste. This is especially important for the vegetables, which should be crisp and flavorful.
Don't overfill the sambousa: When filling the sambousa, be sure not to overfill them. This will make them difficult to fold and will also make them more likely to burst open when they are being fried.
Fry the sambousa in hot oil: The oil should be hot enough to fry the sambousa quickly and evenly. If the oil is not hot enough, the sambousa will absorb too much oil and will become greasy.
Drain the sambousa on paper towels: After frying, drain the sambousa on paper towels to remove any excess oil. This will help to keep them crispy.
Serve the sambousa with a dipping sauce: Sambousa can be served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as tahini sauce, yogurt sauce, or tomato sauce.
