Triangular samsa with a tender chicken and onion filling in crisp flaky dough. Baked in the oven until golden.

Method

Mix the flour with the salt, add the cold diced butter and rub it in with your hands until crumbly.
Pour in the cold water, quickly knead a soft dough, wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Finely chop the chicken fillet and the onion, add salt, black pepper and cumin and mix well.
Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Divide the dough into 12 pieces and roll each one into a circle 10–12 cm in diameter.
Place 2 tbsp of filling in the middle of each circle, pinch the edges into a triangle and set them seam side down on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Brush the samsa with beaten egg, sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake for 40 minutes, until golden.
