Add the softened butter cubes to the dough. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 8-10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Place the kneaded dough back into the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

While the dough is rising, prepare the steak filling. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 3-5 minutes.

Add the diced steak pieces to the pan with the onions and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

Pour in the heavy cream and add the garlic paste. Stir the mixture well and cook for another 3-5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and coat the steak and onions. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Take one dough ball and flatten it into a disc shape in your hand. Place a spoonful of the prepared steak filling in the center of the flattened dough. Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese over the filling.

Carefully gather the edges of the dough and pinch them together to seal completely around the filling, forming a round, enclosed ball. Repeat this process for all remaining dough balls.

Dredge each filled dough ball first in the all-purpose flour, then dip it into the milk, letting excess drip off, and finally coat thoroughly in the Panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure an even and thick layer.
