Steps

1

Dissolve the yeast and sugar in 1 1/2 cups warm water and let sit for 5 minutes.
2

In a bowl, combine the flour, olive oil, and salt. Add the warm water with yeast and sugar, and knead well. Once the dough rises, divide it into small pieces.
3

Finely chop all the vegetables and add them to the ground meat along with the spices, salt, and tomato paste. Mix everything together thoroughly.
4

Roll out the dough pieces and place them on baking sheets. Spread the meat filling on top and bake in a preheated oven until the bottoms are golden and the tops are lightly browned. Once out of the oven, cover with a clean towel. Enjoy!
