Make the dough: In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and egg. Gradually add water, mixing until a shaggy dough forms. Knead on a lightly floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 30 minutes.

Prepare the filling: In a separate bowl, combine ground beef, minced onion, chopped parsley, smoked paprika, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Mix well until thoroughly combined. Refrigerate.
