About this recipe

I only post recipes that I have tried and verified and are good to my taste — all taste may vary.

A little broth in the filling keeps cooked meat juicy inside the dough.

1 lb cooked roast pork or beef (or 1 lb braised chuck) cooled
2 onions diced and fried golden in 3 tbsp butter
1/2 cup broth
1 tsp marjoram
Salt and pepper
Butter and fried onions to serve
