Heat a pan and stir-fry the ground pork (or ground beef); once the meat changes color, add the chopped onion, scrambled eggs, salt, sugar, and MSG, and mix well.

Form the Pies
Roll out the flour dough into wrappers and enclose the stir-fried filling, shaping each into a rectangular pie.

Pan-Cook
Cook the pies on a griddle until golden and fully cooked through, brushing the surface with oil once or twice during cooking.
