Knead the dough and rest it for 20 minutes before cutting small rounds.
Saute the ground beef filling with onion for 5 minutes.
Fill the dough rounds and close them like manti dumplings.
Lightly dry the dumplings in a 190°C oven for 10 minutes.
Heat the yogurt sauce over low heat, stirring constantly so it does not split.
Cook the dumplings in the sauce for 8 minutes.
💡 Tip: Briefly baking the dumplings before adding them to the yogurt sauce helps them keep their shape without opening.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Spoon the shish barak dumplings with their yogurt sauce into a deep plate and keep the garlicky surface glossy.
