Directions

  1. Prepare the dough: mix the milk, water, yogurt, yeast, salt, and sugar, then add the flour until a soft dough forms. Knead. ≈ 10 min
  2. Divide the dough in half. Roll out one half to fit the baking dish, brush with oil, and fold it in half. Repeat with the other half. Let it rest.
  3. While you’re doing that, return the ground beef to the pan and cook until the juices have evaporated.
  4. Add the chopped onions and peppers, then, after 4-5 minutes, add the peeled and chopped tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-6 minutes, then let it cool.
  5. Grease a baking dish. Spread out the first layer of dough with a rolling pin, place it in the dish, and distribute the filling evenly. ≈ 4 min
  6. Spread out the second layer and place it on top. ≈ 4 min
  7. Whisk the egg yolk with a little oil paint and brush it onto the surface. Cut into portions with a knife. ≈ 8 min
  8. Bake in a preheated oven at 200 °C until the top and bottom are golden brown.
