Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Dough
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Mix well. In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm water, egg, and melted butter. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and knead until a smooth dough forms. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Prepare the Filling
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the chopped strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and let cool.

Assemble the Magwinyas
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into small balls. Flatten each ball and place a spoonful of the strawberry filling in the center. Fold the dough over the filling and seal it tightly.
