1. 1

   For the dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Gradually add warm water, mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms.

   💡 Proffstips: Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest for at least 30 minutes.
2. 2

   For the filling: Heat 4 tbsp of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent.

3. 3

   Add the ground meat to the skillet. Break it up with a spoon and cook until browned.

4. 4

   Stir in minced garlic, cumin powder, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.

   💡 Proffstips: Ensure the filling is well-seasoned.
5. 5

   Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a thin circle, about 6-7 inches in diameter.

   💡 Proffstips: Work on a lightly floured surface.
6. 6

   Place about 2-3 tablespoons of the meat filling onto one half of each dough circle, leaving a border.

7. 7

   Fold the other half of the dough over the filling to create a semi-circle. Crimp the edges firmly to seal.

   💡 Proffstips: You can use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative finish and a secure seal.
8. 8

   Heat a generous amount of oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the gutaps for 4-6 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.

   💡 Proffstips: Do not overcrowd the pan; fry in batches if necessary.
9. 9

   Drain on paper towels and serve hot.

   💡 Proffstips: Gutap is delicious on its own or served with a side of yogurt or sour cream.
