Working time approx. 1 hour; Cooking/baking time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 15 minutes

to enjoy cold or warm, makes about 30 pieces

Combine oil, margarine, sugar, salt, and the slightly warm milk in a bowl. Crumble in the yeast and mix until dissolved. Add enough flour to form a smooth dough that no longer sticks to your fingers. Let it rise until doubled in size. In the meantime, prepare the fillings. For the minced meat filling: Fry the diced onion with the minced meat and finally stir in a little tomato paste. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar. For the feta filling: Crumble the feta cheese and mix with the chopped parsley. Now form small balls from the dough and roll them out into small flatbreads. Since the dough is very oily, I simply flattened and shaped them with my fingers. Place a dollop of filling on the flatbread, fold it into a half-moon, and press the edges together firmly to prevent the filling from running out. Brush with egg yolk and sprinkle with black cumin seeds. Bake at approx. 200°C (fan oven) for about 15 minutes until golden brown.
