How to Make Lebanese Meat Pies Sfeeha
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the ground meat, onion, garlic, allspice, cumin, cayenne pepper (if using), parsley, pine nuts, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 8-10 equal-sized circles (or use a cookie cutter).
- Place a spoonful of the meat mixture in the center of each dough circle.
- Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape, pressing the edges firmly to seal.
- Place the pies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Brush the tops of the pies with the beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds (if desired).
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is cooked through.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious homemade Lebanese Sfeeha!
