  • onion and bell pepper 1 piece
  • mixed spices 1 tsp
  • oil for frying 1 cup

Instructions

  1. 1 Kneading

    Mix the ground chicken with the diced onion, bell pepper, and spices until well combined.

  3. 3 Kneading

    Roll out the dough until paper-thin, place the filling in the center, and fold into a neat rectangular parcel.

    Pan-fry in hot oil until crispy, flaky, and golden brown on both sides.
