Lahmacun is a popular middle eastern dish of spiced lamb mince on flat bread dough, much like a cheese-less pizza. I used the last of the lamb in my freezer, and some thin pitta bread from a middle eastern store and cooked in in the oven on a pizza stone because i was lazy
Goes without saying you can do it on the BBQ. Traditionally it is cooked in a wood-fired oven.
Minced lamb
Minced onion
Finely diced green peppers
Finally diced tomatoes
Parsley
Tomato paste
Olive oil
S&P
Cumin
Chili flakes
You mix all the ingredients and knead them till they get a smooth consistency. Allow the mix to stand for an hour or so for the flavors to integrate, then spread the mince meat paste thin on your pittas or dough.
Place the Lahmacuns in the oven/BBQ ideally on a pizza stone and cook till thhe dough is crispy and the meat cooked.
Serve with tomato slices, sliced onion and parsley and drizzle a few drops of onion
Lahmacuns can be either sliced like a pizza and served as an entree or folded like a wrap
