Soak 1 cup of bulgur wheat in warm water. Once the bulgur absorbs the water, drain and squeeze out any excess liquid.

In a food processor or grinder, combine the bulgur, 1/4 pound ground beef, salt, spices, and black pepper. Process until the mixture forms a dough-like consistency.

Finely chop the onion. In a skillet, sauté the onion with ground beef for the filling. Once the beef is cooked, add the pine nuts, salt, black pepper, and spices. Mix well.
