Kuchuk Somsa
Kuchuk Somsa are small, bite-sized savory pastries filled with a mixture of finely minced meat (typically lamb or beef), onions, and aromatic spices. They are often baked in a tandoor oven, giving them a distinct smoky flavor and a wonderfully crisp crust. These small parcels are perfect as an appetizer or a snack.

Assemble the somsa: Divide the dough into small, equal portions (about the size of a walnut). Roll each portion thinly into a small circle. Place a small amount of filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough to create small, triangular or round shapes, sealing the edges firmly. You can also pinch the edges to create decorative patterns.
