Prepare the ingredients: curry powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, black pepper, salt, bay leaves, cinnamon stick, cardamom, star anise, cloves, onion, garlic, ginger, fresh coriander, bell pepper, chopped tomato, carrots, squash, aubergine, zucchini, potato, and blended tomato.

In a pot, add oil and then the chopped onion. Cook until the onion is translucent and aromatic.

Add garlic and ginger to the pot and sauté until fragrant.

Stir in tomato paste and blended tomato, then add the spices and simmer for about 2 minutes.

Add the squash and black lemon, then simmer the vegetable mixture.

Prepare the dough: In a bowl, combine 2 kilos of flour with salt and oil, mixing well.

Gradually add water to form a dough, adjusting the water as needed based on the flour's absorption.

Knead the dough and optionally add turmeric for health benefits, then set aside.

In a separate pan, heat a little oil and sauté onion until translucent, then add black lemon powder, black pepper, and a pinch of salt.

Add frozen peas (optional) and the spices (coriander and cumin) to enhance the flavor of the filling, then set aside.

Divide the dough into small balls and flatten them without a rolling pin.

Place the filling in the center of each flattened dough, fold, and seal the edges tightly to prevent the filling from escaping during cooking.

Continue shaping the dough and filling until all are prepared, optionally decorating the edges.

Place the prepared dough balls into the pot with the vegetable mixture, cover, and cook until the dough is done.

Once cooked, transfer the vegetable-filled dough to a serving plate.
