Instructions
- 1In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and olive oil. Gradually add water, mixing until a dough forms. Knead for 5 minutes, then wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- 2In a skillet, brown ground beef over medium heat. Drain any excess fat.
- 3Add chopped onion and red bell pepper to the skillet and cook until softened. Stir in paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper.
