this look delicious and my dad is from the middle east and always oils the surface as opposed to using loads of flour 🙂 will make this for sure x
Definitely going to make this recipe, but make it vegetarian by substituting the lamb for red lentils.
Looks great, I'd like to try this
Brilliant and simple
Is that really raw lamb mince cooked in 5 mins in the oven?
amazing ideas .. i will try this for sure.. i love it.. now what was that dip on the sidee.. is that hummus??
That is a nice try but the traditional Turkish Lahmacun is made with a much much thinner dough, it is eaten wrapped with parsley and a squeeze of lemon, the shape is most of the times an ellipse or a circle, but not a teardrop shape…
nice one Like it
Make the Lahmacun for my family and it was a big hit! Thanks for the recipe! Will be making it again!
Middle East pizza, love it
Isn’t Turkish pizza , sorry , Lahumacum is Arabic dish
Very 👍
My wife is Turkish and she has never cooked a lahmacun like this.
ooops….not enough red pepper paste and there is no yeast in the dough…..the final topping should also be more of a red paste you spread on as a topping too and tomato is not cooked or processed in blender.
