== Ingredients ==
* 3 finely chopped medium onions
* 1 tablespoon of freshly ground ginger and garlic
* 2 tablespoons of cooking oil
* ½ teaspoon ground cumin
* 1 tablespoon of cooking salt
* 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
* 1 teaspoon of sesame oil
* 2 tablespoons of hot water
* 2 lbs minced lamb or beef
* 6 cups of self-raising flour

== Directions ==
# Add the cold water to the flour a little at a time.
# Knead the dough for about 4-5 minutes.
# Leave the dough to stand for a while at room temperature.
# Add the hot water, chopped onion, oil, salt and spices to the mince and mix them well.
# Roll out the dough as thin as possible (on a well floured surface) and cut them into 4 inch rounds.
# Put 2 teaspoons of the meat mixture on the round and flatten it down a little.
# Put another round on top and pinch the edges together tightly.
# Deep fry the sha-balé in moderately hot oil (only cook a few at a time).
