Aromatic Maltese Pan-Fried Pork Dumplings

Assemble the ingredients: pork, olive oil, cumin, coriander, flour, salt, onion.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the pork and cook until pan-fried.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Maltese flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Maltese accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
