How to make the dough
Place in a bowl flour and dried yeast. Whisk.
In a separate bowl pour 250ml lukewarm water. Add 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon sugar. Whisk.
Add the flour combined with dried yeast, gradually, stirring with a wooden spoon. When the dough becomes too thick to stir, start kneading. Knead until the whole flour is incorporated. If the dough is too sticky, you can add a little more flour (1-2 tablespoons).
Place the prepared dough into a lightly greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let it rise for 45 minutes – 1 hour (or until double in size)
Meanwhile prepare the filling.
How to make the filling
Wash and finely chop the mushrooms. Set aside.
Peel and finely chop the onions. Place it into a skillet with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Place the skillet over medium heat and cook, stirring often, until the onions turns glossy.
Add the minced meat and continue to cook until the meat changes color.



Add the chopped mushrooms and season with salt, pepper, cumin and thyme. Continue to cook until the water left by mushrooms evaporates.
Remove from heat and add chopped parsley. Stir to combine. Allow to cool (until achieves the room temperature).

Turn the dough upside down and roll it again into 1cm thick circle.
