Fried dough Pockets stuffed with pumpkin

This dish is very loved by kids and elderly people in Uzbekistan. 

The first you have to prepare the stuffing.

For the dough:

• 1 cup of cold milk
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1 and 1/2 or 2 cups of all purpose flour

In a bow mix salt and milk. Add flour and make a soft and nice dough. Then, cover and let rest for 15-20 minutes. Cut the dough into small pieces and make "balls" in a size of walnuts. Roll out each "ball" 5.5 inch (14 centimeters) diameter circle shape and spread 1 table spoon of filling on one half (as yo see in the picture below)...

and fold over to make a half circle. Pinch the edges. You can wet the edges to make sure they stick together.

pinch edges to make them wavy.

Serve hot!
Bon appetite!
