Ingredients:
- 1 egg
- 200 ml warm milk
- 200 ml warm water

- 20 g granulated sugar
- 8 g salt
- 540 g flour
- 1 potato, peeled and finely diced

- 1 onion, finely chopped
- A handful of parsley, finely chopped
- 80 g Tulum cheese (or any crumbly cheese), crumbled

Directions:
- Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, dissolve sugar and yeast in lukewarm water. Let sit until foamy (5-10 minutes). Mix in warm milk, egg, and salt. Gradually add flour, mixing until the dough is soft but not sticky. Knead on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled (about 1 hour).
- Prepare the Filling: Boil diced potato until tender. Sauté onions and peppers in oil until soft. Mix with potatoes, parsley, and cheese. Let cool.
- Assemble: Divide risen dough into small balls. Roll each into a circle, place filling in the center, fold and seal into a half-moon shape.
- Fry: Heat oil in a deep pan. Fry stuffed breads until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
