Step 1
First, you need to prepare a simple dough. Beat a chicken egg with salt. Pour water into the same container and gradually add flour. It's better to sift the flour to prevent lumps from forming. The dough should turn out elastic and firm. Knead it well by hand and then refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Step 2
While the dough is chilling, you can prepare the filling. Peel the onion and finely chop it. Add the onion to the meat and mix well. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 3
Now take out the dough and roll it out into a thin sheet about 4 mm thick. To prevent the dough from sticking to the rolling pin and table, you can lightly dust it with flour. From the rolled dough, cut out circles with a diameter of about 12 centimeters. To do this, use a cup or another object with a suitable diameter.

Step 4
All that remains is to place the filling onto the cut dough and carefully pinch the future buns to give them the proper shape. Gather the dough into a little pouch over the meat, but make sure the meat isn't completely covered. Pinch the edges together and arrange the pleats in one direction. The result should resemble a flower bud.
