For the Dough:
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup water
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 egg
For the Filling:
- 12 oz ground beef
- 1 medium onion grated
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp salt
For the Yogurt:
- 3 cups Greek yogurt
- 3 tbsp water
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ tsp salt
For the Sauce:
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried mint
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
Make the Dough:
In a large bowl, combine the flour, water, salt, and egg. Knead the mixture until it forms a smooth, elastic dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Prepare the Filling:
In a separate bowl, mix the ground beef, grated onion, black pepper, and salt. Set aside.
Shape the Manti:
Roll the rested dough out on a lightly floured surface to about ⅛ inch thick. Cut it into ½-inch squares. Place a small amount of the beef filling in the center of each square. Fold the corners, meeting at the center, pinching the edges to form pouch-like small dumplings. Repeat the process until all ingredients are used.
Prepare the Yogurt Topping:
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, water, minced garlic, and salt until smooth. Adjust the water as needed to get a pourable consistency. Set aside.
