What is the origin of a beef filled turnover? Is it called something else?
I went to a restaurant years back in NYC and it was served with baklava. Would it be called beef filled turnover or knish or perhaps something else?

In Germans from Russia cooking, we call them Fleish Keuchla(spelling sucks, I know!) Ground beef well seasoned in a dough pocket that was deep fried. I believe Britain has one called a "pasty" and was made for mens lunch boxes. The knish I have seen in recipe form had a potato onion filling but that doesn't mean someone didn't make it with beef as well. Other ethnic groups have thier own versions too, I am sure. Google meat pasty or meat turnover and see what pops up.

Pastry filled with beef is common to many cuisines, prepared a bunch of different ways, with different names. Pasty (british), Pattie (caribbean), Pieroshki (Russian), Empenada (spanish/latin american). Lots more too.
