Take a portion of the dough and make small balls of it.
On the board dust some flour, take a dough ball and roll it.
Take some filling and place it at the center, collect all the ends of the dough and seal it to make a round ball.
Repeat the procedure to make similar balls.
Start rolling the balls again, try and spread them with your finger as much as you can.
Prick it with a fork and let it cook on a pan on one side till it turns slightly brown.
Remove them and place on a baking tray and brush little milk on top.
