Mix in a bowl the flour, yeast, salt, sugar and oil. Then, add the egg. Gradually, add the water and knead to form a firm dough.

Put the dough on a floured work surface. Knead until smooth for about 15 minutes. If the dough is too stiff, add some water.

Divide the dough into 4 balls. Cover and let it rest for 2 hours. Shape each dough to form small balls of an apricot size.

Roll out each ball of dough very thin and add some of the meat mixture. Place them in a tray near each other and bake in oven until they change color.
