Divide the rested dough into equal portions and roll each into a thin circle.

Place a portion of the herb and cabbage filling on one half of the dough circle.

Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape and seal the edges tightly.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add butter until melted.

Cook each kutab for about 3 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Remove from the skillet and keep warm while cooking the remaining kutabs.

Serve warm with yogurt on the side.
