Somsas (also spelled Samsa or Comsa, depending on the area) are similar to the East Indian samosas and very much like a small version of the British pasty. Sometimes they are triangular but most of the time they are roundish pockets of dough filled with ground sheep meat (!!!yum!!!), onion and potato.
They are then baked in a tandor oven where they get stuck onto the hot clay oven wall. The round central asian bread loaves I have mentioned a few times are baked the same way. Cool, isn't it!
