240g Vegetable Oil
4 Tsp Sugar

Directions:
Meat filling:
1- Dice your tomatoes and onions small, then place the tomatoes in a sieve to drain. Once drained add to a bowl with the meat and other ingredients
2- Knead together until well incorporated and the mixture can form a smooth log

Dough:
1- Heat your milk to a warm temp (28c) and then add the sugar and yeast. Mix together and let rest somewhere warm until frothy (15-30m)
2- In your stand mixer, add the flour and salt. Mix together briefly
3- Pour in the oil and mix to combine with the flour, until it is sandy and clumpy
4- Add the milk and combine, then knead for about 3 minutes until soft and it leaves no trace on your hands
5- Oil a bowl, and add the dough, then allow to rest for 30 minutes
6- After resting portion out into 25g pieces then shape and top them

To cook:
Run a timed test batch at your highest oven temperature. You want them to be turning golden on top, with a golden underside. Don’t forget to oil the tray after every batch to ensure you get a lightly fried bottom
