Ingredients
For the pastry
2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/2 teaspoon of dry yeast(1 small sachet)
1/2 cup luke warm water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoon Olive oil
1 Organic Egg for brushing
For Sweet Filling
I made fresh Pomegranate and cranberries compote with dark chocolate. Combine the fresh fruit with 1/4 a cup of apple juice and heat in a medium saucepan over medium heat.Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until the fruit is tender . Remove from heat and cool completely. Before filling mix in 2 tablespoon of dark chocolate chunks.
For Savory filling
Vegetable stuffing just as in this recipe or meal filling like the green kababs.
Method
Mix in the dry yeast and pinch of sugar. Let sit for 15-20 minutes.
In a bowl start mixing the flour ingredients along with the yeast. Make a smooth dough and place in a greased bowl and cover. Allow to rise for an hour until double its size.
Preheat oven to 350F.On a lightly floured work surface,roll out the dough to 1 cm thick.Cut out 10 rounds about 8 cms in a diameter.Place 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center of each round.
Whisk egg in a bowl and brush the edges of the rounds ;fold rounds in half to make semicircles;press edges using a fork.Brush the top with the egg.Bake for 15 minutes until golden.
