   Add the onion and fry 5–8 minutes, stirring now and then, until the onion is soft and translucent and starts to turn golden at the edges. If it browns too fast, lower the heat.

   💡Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.

To assemble

1. 3
   Add the cumin and turmeric and fry about half a minute, until fragrant.

2. 4
   Add the potatoes, peas and salt and mix well.

   Let cool before filling.

   💡Fill with cooled filling: hot filling softens the dough and steams it from inside, and the pastry opens while baking.
