Translated from Arabic "lahmajun" means dough with meat. It is a kind of pide with roots in the Middle East, but most common in Turkey, where there are hundreds of restaurants that only serve lahmajan. It is baked in stone ovens, in which the temperature can reach 2000 ° C, but this should not stop us, since the combination of quality meat, good dough and vegetables gives us a chance to get a wonderful lahmajan at home. Afiyet olsun!

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Combine meat, broth, tomatoes, green onions and crushed garlic. Add parsley, salt and spices. Mix well and refrigerate, where it is desirable to leave for at least 2 hours, so that the filling is better infused. As a last resort, you can start baking right away.
  2. Dough: dissolve sugar and yeast in warm water, then add flour and knead an elastic dough. Add sugar, salt and butter at the end. Leave in a warm place for 45-50 minutes if it's winter and 20 minutes if it's summer. Divide the dough into 5 even balls. Roll each of them with flour dusting onto discs 20 cm in diameter. The dough is obedient, it rolls out very easily. The thickness of the dough should not be more than 3 mm. Then, with your hands or a spoon, spread the meat in a very thin layer over the surface of the cakes, leaving 1 cm of free edge.
  3. Preheat oven at least 20 minutes before baking to maximum temperature (typically 250 ° C), bake in the middle of the oven on a stone or baking paper. Bake each tortilla for about 3 minutes. Do not wait for browning, the edges should be slightly baked, the middle will be completely white. The main thing is the readiness of the meat. Check the color of the dough without opening the oven - cold air hardens the dough. You need to get lahmajun very quickly, put a leaf of lettuce, parsley, a slice of lemon, a couple of slices of tomato on the surface. Roll up quickly. In Turkey, lahmajun is served with a glass of ayran.
