Difficulty Level: 5

Put the bread and water in a saucepena with the rest of the thyme and cook until most the othe water has evaporated. Add the bread and the paprika to the meat. Stir in the red pepper or hot sauce and cook over low heat, stirring often, for about 20 minutes.
Step 4:Roll the dough out about 1/8 inch thick; the dough should not be too thin or it may break when filled. Cut out circles about 6 inches in diameter.
