Algerian Bourak

In a large skillet, cook the ground beef, onion, and garlic until the beef is browned and the onions are soft.

Add the cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper to the skillet and mix well.

Stir in the chopped parsley and cilantro, then remove the skillet from the heat and let the mixture cool.

Preheat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (180°C).

Take one sheet of phyllo dough and lay it flat on a clean surface. Brush it lightly with vegetable oil.

Place a spoonful of the beef mixture at the bottom of the phyllo sheet, then fold the sides in and roll it up into a cigar shape.

Repeat with the remaining phyllo sheets and beef mixture.

Fry the bourak in the hot oil until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch.

Remove the bourak from the oil and drain them on paper towels.

Serve hot and enjoy!
