Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings Dough: 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting ½ teaspoon salt 2 large eggs ½ teaspoon water, or as needed Filling: 2 onions, peeled ½ pound ground beef salt and pepper to taste Red Pepper Oil: 3 tablespoons vegetable oil 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes Yogurt Sauce: 1 (8 ounce) container plain yogurt 1 tablespoon minced garlic Directions Make dough: Combine flour and salt in a large bowl. Add eggs and water, mixing well with your hands. Add more water, if needed, to form a soft dough. Cover and set aside for at least 30 minutes. Make filling: Shred onions and place them in a colander or sieve set over a bowl; drain and discard juice. Combine drained onion, ground beef, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl; mix well with a spoon until mashed. Set filling aside. Lightly flour a work surface and a large plate. Divide dough in half. Working with one piece at a time, roll dough on the floured surface into a rectangle as thin as possible. Cut into 2-inch squares using a knife or pastry wheel. Place about 2 teaspoons filling in the center of each square. Gather the edges of dough and pinch them together at the top to form a bundle. Transfer manti to the prepared plate; sprinkle more flour on top to prevent sticking. Make oil: Heat oil and red pepper flakes in a small skillet over low heat just until pepper flakes begin to color oil. Remove from heat and keep warm. Make sauce: Stir together yogurt and garlic in a small bowl; set aside. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook manti in boiling water until filling is no longer pink and dough is tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain well. Divide manti onto 4 plates. Spoon yogurt sauce over manti and drizzle with pepper oil. Recipe Tip You can use ground lamb or other ground meat instead of beef if you prefer. I Made It Print 57 home cooks made it!
