It’s baked or pan fried until perfectly crisp. The spice mix in the mince really makes all the difference and adds so much flavour to this Turkish style flat bread pizza. I love to top mine with toasted pine nuts and chopped cucumbers, tomatoes, red onions roses in a lemony vinaigrette - I also crumble some feta over mine but that is just me.\nWhat is Lahmacun?\nLahmacun is a popular street food\/dish in Turkey and Armenia (where it is also known as lamadjo) as well as in Syria, Lebanon, and Israel. If you love pizza, you’re sure to love lahmacun (LAH’-MAH’-juhn). It has a much thinner dough, doesn’t use cheese in the topping, and can either be rolled or folded before eating it.\nWhat is Lahmacun made with?\nLahmacun is basically made of three components - flat bread, spiced mince meat, and the veggies that go into the mince. It’s also usually topped with lemon juice, chopped freshly parsley and red onions.  Let’s break down each component.\nThe flat bread: You can make your own flat bread or you can use store bought flat bread naan or even prepared pizza dough for a shortcut. My simple homemade from scratch\nflatbread\/pita bread recipe\nis a great one to use for this dish. I  used Bob’s Red Mill Grain Free Flatbread Mix which is a quick and fabulous option for the base of this recipe. It’s an easy mix to use and your flat bread comes together in minutes - no proofing required and produces a crispy grain free and gluten free flat bread base. It has a subtle nuttiness and sweetness to it that my husband loves and he is pretty picky when it comes to anything gluten free. Bob’s Red Mill always has you covered with so many grain free options for baking and cooking for all your dietary needs.\nThe spiced mince filling: usually lahmacun is made with either minced lamb or beef and a mixture of veggies but you can also use your favorite vegan mince in place of the meat as well. If you want to skip the meat all together you can can use the veggie mix on its own with all the spices for a vegetarian take one this tasty dish. All of those options would be fabulous - because what makes the filling or the mince so delicious is the distinct spice mix. The combination of spices is amazing and really works well with whatever you chose to use for the filling.\nThe Topping: The lahmacun is traditionally served with lemon wedges and a mixture of Italian parsley, sliced red onion, and a sprinkling of sumac. I like mine loaded with a lemony chopped salad - but you can either pile it on or have it on the side. I also added crumbled feta because the Greek in me just couldn’t resist.\nCan Lahmacun be made ahead?\nThe mince meat can be prepared the night before and stored in an sealed container in the fridge. It can also be frozen for up to 2 months. The flat bread mix I used can be made in 5 minutes so making it ahead doesn’t really save you much time. If you are making homemade flat bread\/ pita you can definitely make it ahead and allow it to proof overnight in the fridge. That will definitely save you time.\nHow to make Lahmacun \/Turkish style pizza:\nThis is the fun part! Here’s an overview of the easy steps. Scroll down for the full recipe with exact measurements.\nPREPARE the flatbread\nEither make your own\nhomemade flatbread\nor you can use my recipe for it - or you can use store bought pizza dough. Or another great hack is to spread the meat mixture of naan. If you are using the Bob’s Red Mill flatbread mix you simply mix the flour with water, oil and eggs and then roll it out into the size you want your flat bread to be.\nMAKE THE FILLING\nFor the topping, I like to use a food processor to chop my veggies very fine. If you don’t have a food processor just try to chop your veggies by hand as fine as possible. Then I mix in the tomato paste, spices and the meat and it’s ready to spread onto your flat bread\nASSEMBLE AND BAKE THE LAHMACUN\nPreheat the oven. Place the flatbread on baking sheet. Spread the topping over each flatbread pizza and then bake for 10-15 minutes. For a softer texture in your flatbread make make sure to not over bake but for a crispier one you may want to bake for a couple extra minutes.  Also keep in mind the thicker the layer of the meat mixture is, the longer it may take for it to cook through.  I usually do a moderate even layer.

I’m partial to Turkish flavours and food,  - I think for a few reasons, I enjoy them as many of them are familiar and I always enjoy food that is well spiced and seasoned. I think many parts of Turkish food and culture are familiar as they can be similar to Greek - I grew up with and have very dear to me Turkish friends and I have also become slightly obsessed with Turkish movies - so this recipe has been a long time coming I think.

Boilerpipe Text

This delicious and easy to make Lahmacun is topped with a well spiced ground beef, lamb or vegan mince mixture. It’s baked or pan fried until perfectly crisp. The spice mix in the mince really makes all the difference and adds so much flavour to this Turkish style flat bread pizza. I love to top mine with toasted pine nuts and chopped cucumbers, tomatoes, red onions roses in a lemony vinaigrette - I also crumble some feta over mine but that is just me. What is Lahmacun? Lahmacun is a popular street food/dish in Turkey and Armenia (where it is also known as lamadjo) as well as in Syria, Lebanon, and Israel. If you love pizza, you’re sure to love lahmacun (LAH’-MAH’-juhn). It has a much thinner dough, doesn’t use cheese in the topping, and can either be rolled or folded before eating it. What is Lahmacun made with? Lahmacun is basically made of three components - flat bread, spiced mince meat, and the veggies that go into the mince. It’s also usually topped with lemon juice, chopped freshly parsley and red onions. Let’s break down each component. The flat bread: You can make your own flat bread or you can use store bought flat bread naan or even prepared pizza dough for a shortcut. My simple homemade from scratch flatbread/pita bread recipe is a great one to use for this dish. I used Bob’s Red Mill Grain Free Flatbread Mix which is a quick and fabulous option for the base of this recipe. It’s an easy mix to use and your flat bread comes together in minutes - no proofing required and produces a crispy grain free and gluten free flat bread base. It has a subtle nuttiness and sweetness to it that my husband loves and he is pretty picky when it comes to anything gluten free. Bob’s Red Mill always has you covered with so many grain free options for baking and cooking for all your dietary needs. The spiced mince filling: usually lahmacun is made with either minced lamb or beef and a mixture of veggies but you can also use your favorite vegan mince in place of the meat as well. If you want to skip the meat all together you can can use the veggie mix on its own with all the spices for a vegetarian take one this tasty dish. All of those options would be fabulous - because what makes the filling or the mince so delicious is the distinct spice mix. The combination of spices is amazing and really works well with whatever you chose to use for the filling. The Topping: The lahmacun is traditionally served with lemon wedges and a mixture of Italian parsley, sliced red onion, and a sprinkling of sumac. I like mine loaded with a lemony chopped salad - but you can either pile it on or have it on the side. I also added crumbled feta because the Greek in me just couldn’t resist. Can Lahmacun be made ahead? The mince meat can be prepared the night before and stored in an sealed container in the fridge. It can also be frozen for up to 2 months. The flat bread mix I used can be made in 5 minutes so making it ahead doesn’t really save you much time. If you are making homemade flat bread/ pita you can definitely make it ahead and allow it to proof overnight in the fridge. That will definitely save you time. How to make Lahmacun /Turkish style pizza: This is the fun part! Here’s an overview of the easy steps. Scroll down for the full recipe with exact measurements. PREPARE the flatbread Either make your own homemade flatbread or you can use my recipe for it - or you can use store bought pizza dough. Or another great hack is to spread the meat mixture of naan. If you are using the Bob’s Red Mill flatbread mix you simply mix the flour with water, oil and eggs and then roll it out into the size you want your flat bread to be. MAKE THE FILLING For the topping, I like to use a food processor to chop my veggies very fine. If you don’t have a food processor just try to chop your veggies by hand as fine as possible. Then I mix in the tomato paste, spices and the meat and it’s ready to spread onto your flat bread ASSEMBLE AND BAKE THE LAHMACUN Preheat the oven. Place the flatbread on baking sheet. Spread the topping over each flatbread pizza and then bake for 10-15 minutes. For a softer texture in your flatbread make make sure to not over bake but for a crispier one you may want to bake for a couple extra minutes. Also keep in mind the thicker the layer of the meat mixture is, the longer it may take for it to cook through. I usually do a moderate even layer. Once done top with whatever garnish options listed below and enjoy! We couldn’t get enough of this Turkish style pizza. I’m partial to Turkish flavours and food, - I think for a few reasons, I enjoy them as many of them are familiar and I always enjoy food that is well spiced and seasoned. I think many parts of Turkish food and culture are familiar as they can be similar to Greek - I grew up with and have very dear to me Turkish friends and I have also become slightly obsessed with Turkish movies - so this recipe has been a long time coming I think. Finally this very simplified version of a Turkish classic is on the blog to be enjoyed! I have partnered up with Bob’s Red Mill to bring you this fabulous recipe, but all opinions are my own.

If using my homemade recipe, roll it out to 4mm thick, and spread on the meat right before the pan frying step- just spread on the meat mixture place in baking pan and bake for the same amount of time as the recipe above calls for. - Make this vegan using your favorite vegan mince. (You will have to make or use a vegan flatbread or dough) - You can make this stove top in a large frying pan. Using medium heat, cook uncovered for 3 minutes then lower the heat and cover and cook for 4 -6 minutes. Lastly, uncover and cook for a further 2 minutes. - If you have leftover meat filling feel free to make more flatbread or pizza dough / or you can freeze it for up to two months if you wanted to save it and make more later. ![Easy Homemade Lahmacun](https://www.oliveandmango.com/images/uploads/2021_02_19_easy_homemade_lahmacun_7.jpg) ## You may also like: - [![Banana Hazelnut Cake With Nutella Frosting](https://www.oliveandmango.com/images/uploads/2019_04_20_banana_hazelnut_cake_with_nutella_frosting_0.jpg)Banana Hazelnut Cake With Nutella Frosting](https://www.oliveandmango.com/banana-hazelnut-cake-with-nutella-frosting/) - [![Cranberry Orange Almond Biscotti](https://www.oliveandmango.com/images/uploads/2020_12_18_cranberry_orange_almond_biscotti_0.jpg)Cranberry Orange Almond Biscotti](https://www.oliveandmango.com/cranberry-orange-almond-biscotti/) - [![Quick One Pan Coq Au Vin Blanc](https://www.oliveandmango.com/images/uploads/2019_02_06_quick_one_pan_coq_au_vin_blanc_0.jpg)Quick One Pan Coq Au Vin Blanc](https://www.oliveandmango.com/quick-one-pan-coq-au-vin-blanc/) - [![Cumin Spiced Meatballs in Rich Tomato Sauce](https://www.oliveandmango.com/images/uploads/2019_10_25_cumin_spiced_meatballs_in_rich_tomato_sauce_0.jpg)Cumin Spiced Meatballs in Rich Tomato Sauce](https://www.oliveandmango.com/cumin-spiced-meatballs-in-rich-tomato-sauce/) Please enable JavaScript to view the [comments powered by Disqus.](https://disqus.com/?ref_noscript) ## About Me [![Joanne Rappos](https://www.oliveandmango.com/img/profile_pic.jpg)](https://www.oliveandmango.com/about) Hi!
