👨🍳 Istruzioni

Make the dough: In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, yeast, and sugar. Add olive oil and yogurt. Gradually add warm water while mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Assemble the sfiha: Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a small circle (about 4-5 inches in diameter) on a lightly oiled surface. Place a spoonful of the meat mixture in the center of each dough circle, spreading it to the edges, leaving a small border.

Bake the sfiha: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the assembled sfiha on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the edges of the dough lightly with olive oil. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the meat is cooked through.
