- 206 gr. / 7 oz. All-Purpose Flour
- 206 gr. / 7 oz. semolina
- 1 tsp instant yeast
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp sugar
- 25 gr. / 1 oz. olive oil
- 255 to 283 gr. / 9 to 10 oz. lukewarm water
- 500 gr. / 1 lb ground beef
- 300 gr. / 10 oz. finely chopped tomatoes (I used canned)
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- ¼ cup white wine
- 1 tbsp sugar
- ½ tsp from each of the following: nutmeg, cinnamon, paprika, cumin, chili
- A small bunch of parsley, chopped
- Salt and pepper
- 2 bay leaves
- Couple of tbsp. of olive oil
- 1 egg per boat
- Butter for brushing the Paynirlì and put on top of them after they are out of the oven
- In a skillet put the 3 tbsp of olive oil in medium/high heat and saute the onion for couple of minutes.
- Add the ground beef and saute for 3 minutes.
- Pour the wine and continue to saute until almost all wine is absorbed.
- Next add the chopped tomatoes, herbs sugar and spices and bay leaves.
- Lower heat to low and simmer for 40 minutes.
- Take out the bay leaves.
- Remove from fire and put aside to cool.
- I placed all the ingredients for the dough in my bread maker machine in the dough circle and let it do all the job.
- When it finished I halved the dough and put the one half in the fridge for future use.
- With the rest half I made four Paynirlì.
- If you don’t have a bread maker machine, do the following:
- In your stand mixer place all the ingredients and beat until a smooth and soft dough is formed around the hook.
- Preheat oven to 200˚C / 400˚ F.
- Let the half dough you will use, rise for 45 minutes and then divide it again in four and start to knead making four oval thin disks.
- In the center of each arrange the ground beef.
- Start from the tips by covering them and seal them just like in the pictures.
- At this point you can sprinkle some grated cheese on top but this completely optional.
- Brush the dough with butter and place them in the oven and bake them for about 15 minutes or until the dough is ready and golden.
- Remove from the oven cut a small piece of butter and place it on top of the beef along with an egg either poached or sunny side up.
- Serve while warm.
