Method
Mix the water, salt and sunflower oil, pour it into the flour and knead a stiff dough. Cover and leave for 30 minutes.
Melt the butter. Divide the dough in half, roll each half into a thin sheet, brush with butter, stack the sheets together and roll them up tightly into a log. Chill for 20 minutes.
Finely chop the onion and mix it with the ground beef, salt, black pepper and cumin.
Cut the log into 15 pieces and roll each one out into a circle 12–14 cm in diameter, cut side up.
Place 1–2 tbsp of filling on each circle, pinch the edges into a triangle and set them seam side down on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Preheat the oven to 190 °C. Brush the samsa with egg yolk, sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake for 35–40 minutes.
