Instructions
Dough
12 minutes1.
Combine the flour, dry milk, sugar, salt, yeast, olive oil, and warm water. Mix until the dough comes together, then kneed to form a smooth dough.

Form dough into a ball, transfer to an oiled container, cover, and let rest until doubled.

Melt the ghee and awarma in a pan, then add to the meat mixture and mix to incorporate. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Assemble
5.Preheat oven to 500F. Divide the dough and filling into four portions. Roll each portion of dough into a circle one half centimeter thick. Spread one of the portions of meat even on one half, leaving a border of uncovered dough. Fold the dough over the meat to enclose, and press the edges to seal. Pierce the dough in several spots to allow steam to escape while cooking. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
Bake for 20 minutes, then broil to brown. Let cool several minutes before serving with salad and pickles.
