Ingredients

Dough

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt

Filling

  • Ground beef (amount based on preference)

  • 1 roasted poblano pepper, chopped

  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 2/3 cup pico de gallo

  • 1 tablespoon ginger garlic paste

Topping

  • Chili oil or chili olive oil

  • Red pepper flakes


Instructions

Step 1:

In a large bowl, mix the flour and Greek yogurt until a soft dough forms. Knead gently on a floured surface until smooth. Cover and set aside.


Step 2:

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned.


Step 3:

Add roasted poblano, taco seasoning, salt, pico de gallo, and ginger garlic paste to the beef. Cook for a few more minutes until everything is well combined and heated through. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.


Step 4:

Divide the dough into small portions and roll out each piece into a thin circle.


Step 5:

Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold and seal the edges to form dumplings.


Step 6:

Steam or pan-fry the dumplings until cooked through and golden brown, depending on your preference.
