These little pies are a Sephardic Jewish speciality, believed to have been brought by the Jews from Spain to Turkey; but both the dough and one of the traditional fillings are similar to those of the Oriental sanbusak.

Method

Their shape is that of a little covered pot, like a tiny English meat pie. Two fillings are traditional: the meat filling, and the khandrajo (aubergine filling).

Prepare the dough as in the recipe for sanbusak
