Knead a firm dough with the flour, egg, water, and remaining salt, then rest for 25 minutes.
25 min25:00 - 3
Rinse the rice, finely dice one onion, and saute it with one third of the butter for 5 minutes.
5 min05:00 - 4
Add the rice, black pepper, mint, and 1 cup of chicken stock and cook for 8 minutes like a firm pilaf.
8 min08:00 - 5
Roll the dough thinly, cut squares, add the rice filling, and close them like little bundles.
- 6
Arrange the dough bundles on a greased tray and bake at 190°C for 24 minutes, until browned.
24 min24:00 - 7
Slice the remaining onions into half-moons and soften them in butter for 10 minutes.

8 min08:00
💡 Tip: If goose or duck is unavailable, use bone-in chicken thighs; breast meat stays dry and does not carry the broth through the baked rice manti.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice hot from the tray and serve for iftar or a guest table with garlicky yogurt and ayran if desired.
