    List of Ingredients




    For the pastry
    2 Cups All-purpose flour
    1/2 tsp salt
    2/3 cup cold water
    1 tsp olive oil

    For the pumpkin filling
    1/2 of a 15oz can of pumpkin purée
    1/2 tsp salt
    1 clove garlic, peeled and minced
    2 Tbsp finely diced onion
    1/4 tsp (I used 1/2 tsp) minced Jalapeño or Serrano Chili pepper
    1/2 tsp minced fresh ginger
    1/2 tsp ground coriander
    Fresh ground black pepper

    Olive oil for frying

    Recipe



    1. Mix the flour and salt together in the mixing bowl of a stand-up mixer (if you have one) or just a large bowl. Make a well in the middle of the flour and add the water slowly. Add the teaspoon of oil and mix the dough together, kneading it a little until it forms a ball. If the dough doesn’t come together in a ball, add a little bit more water. Once the dough is formed, using the dough hook of your stand-up mixer (or doing it by hand), knead it for 10 minutes. Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rest for 1 hour.

    2. In the meantime, prepare your ingredients for the pumpkin filling. Mix together all of the ingredients either in a bowl, or in a food processor to ensure that they are fully blended.

    3. Once the dough has rested for an hour, divide into 4 balls. Flour a large, wooden cutting board and roll out the dough into a flat disc with a rolling pin. It should be about 10 inches in diameter and as thin as you can make it. Spread 2-3 Tbsp of the pumpkin mixture on one half of the dough circle, leaving a small border around the edge and the other half empty. Fold over the dough and press it together to form a seal. Repeat for the remaining 3 balls.

    4. Heat about ¼ cup of oil in a 12-inch sauté pan over medium-high heat. Make sure that the pan is just hot enough so that the bolani will sizzle when it hits the pan. Brown the bolani about 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. They can either be served immediately, or for a party, you can slice them into appetizer slices and serve them a little warmer than room temperature.
