Posikunchiki

Posikunchiki are meat pies made with unleavened dough. However, they have one feature – the filling is very juicy and when bitten into, the meat juice squirts out from the exposed edge. Therefore, posikunchiki should be eaten carefully so as not to lose all the broth inside, and to enjoy them.
