# Ingredients:

→ Dough

01 - 2½ cups all-purpose flour
02 - 1 tsp salt
03 - 2 tsp instant yeast
04 - 2½ tbsp sunflower oil
05 - ¾ cup lukewarm water

→ Sloppy Joe Filling

06 - 2 tbsp butter
07 - 1 lb ground beef
08 - 1 small onion, diced
09 - ½ green bell pepper, diced
10 - 1 clove garlic, minced
11 - 1 tsp cumin powder
12 - 1 tsp onion powder
13 - 1 tsp salt
14 - ½ tsp black pepper
15 - ¾ cup ketchup
16 - 1 tbsp mustard
17 - ⅓ cup water
18 - Cheddar cheese slices

# Steps:

01 - Mix flour, salt, and yeast. Add oil and lukewarm water. Knead for 10–12 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
02 - Melt butter in a skillet. Cook onion, bell pepper, and garlic until softened. Add ground beef, break into crumbles, and brown fully.
03 - Season with salt, pepper, cumin, and onion powder. Add ketchup, mustard, and water. Stir well and simmer until the sauce thickens. Set aside to cool slightly.
04 - Divide dough into equal portions. Flatten each piece, spoon sloppy joe filling in the center, add a slice of cheddar cheese, then fold and seal edges tightly. Flatten gently into a disc.
05 - Cook in a thick-bottomed pan over medium heat until golden brown on both sides and cooked through.
06 - Serve warm while the cheese is still melty.
