Set the oven's temperature to 400°F (200°C).
For the Filling:
Over medium heat in a big skillet, cook the ground meat. Remove the excess fat from the beef, then set it aside.
The onion and garlic should be cooked until soft in the same skillet.
Cooking the flour in the skillet for one to two minutes.

While mixing frequently, bring the mixture to a boil. For fifteen minutes, simmer over low heat.
Add the cooked beef and mixed vegetables together in the skillet.

Combine the flour and salt in a different bowl.
The mixture should resemble coarse crumbs after adding the cold butter.
Once the dough has formed a ball, gradually add ice water.
Roll out the pastry dough to a 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly dusted board.
Use a large glass or a biscuit cutter to cut the pastry into 8 rounds.
Add each round to a muffin pan that has been buttered.
Put the beef mixture into the muffin pans with the pastry lining.
Eight more rounds of pastry should be cut out and placed on top of the beef mixture, with the edges sealed by crimping.
