'''Oromo''' ({{lang-ky|оромо}}, {{IPA-ky|oromo|}}) or '''Orama''' ({{lang-kk|орама}}, {{IPA-kk|u̯ʊrɑmɑ|}}) is a traditional steamed pie made in [[Central Asia]], especially among the [[Kyrgyz people|Kyrgyz]] and the [[Kazakhs]]. The name comes from a [[nominalisation]] of the word "to roll"/"to wrap", referring to how the food is made.

The [[dough]] for orama is made from [[flour]], [[water]], and [[salt]]. It is [[knead]]ed and rolled thin, and a filling is spread over it. The filling may contain [[minced]] [[potato]]es, minced [[animal fat]], and sometimes minced [[pumpkin]] or some other vegetable. The dough is then rolled around the filling in sections so as to create a long, thin [[wrap (food)|wrap]]. The wraps are laid in a circle in steamer pots and steamed.
