Critical Success Points

  • Finely chop the pepper and onion to avoid tearing the dough.
  • Cook the stuffing until all water has fully evaporated.
  • Knead the dough long enough to achieve a supple texture.
  • Properly seal the edges during shaping.
  • Cook over medium heat, turning gently to avoid cracks.

Safety Warnings

  • Hot oil can splatter: use a lid or a splash guard.
  • Handle the knife carefully when chopping vegetables.
  • Do not leave the pan unattended on the heat.
