Ingredients:

For the dough
3 cups all purpose flour
1 egg
1 table spoon sugar
a pinch of salt
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3/4 to 1 cup warm water
2-3 teaspoons instant yeast (you can use any type of yeast just follow the instructions on the package for preparing it)
1 teaspoon sugar

For glazing
1 additional beaten egg for glazing
sesame seeds
Nigella seeds

For the filling
sausage
green pepper
black olives
cheese

Method:
For the dough:
prepare the yeast to make sure it is working by adding the dry yeast + 1 teaspoon of sugar to 2 tablespoons of warm water and covering them for 15 minutes to rise and bubble.
Add all the remaining ingredients in a bowl except for the water and add the yeast mixture.
Add 3/4 of the water and knead the dough (add more water if it is dry). Kneed for 10 minutes until it all comes together and does not stick in the bowl. It should be a soft elastic dough.
Cover and put aside until it doubles in size (can take 1 or 2 hours depending on the weather)
Punch the dough in the middle and then knead again for 5 m inutes.
Divide into 6 balls then flatten each out to a circle (same size as a small pizza)
Divide the filling among 4 of the circles and cover them with the other 4 making sure that the edges are well sealed.
Cover and set aside again for 1/2 an hour then glaze with the beaten egg and using a fork make a few tiny holes then sprinkle with sesame and nigella seeds.
bake in a preheated hot oven (around 200c) in the middle shelf for about 25 minutes or till golden on top
