Lahmacun Pide is a thin piece of dough topped with minced meat, vegetables and herbs and spices, then baked. It is kind of like a delicious Turkish pizza with totally unique flavors spread over a delicious pillowy dough base.
I start lahmacun pide by making a dough from water, yeast, sugar, salt, flour and vegetable oil. Then I make a meat and vegetable filling which I spread on top of the dough like a pizza. Bake in the oven and there you have it. A delicious alternative to pizza.
To make my Lahmacun Pide, you will need the following ingredients:
Place the water, sugar, yeast, salt and two cups of the flour in a large bowl and mix them together. Cover the bowl and leave to rise. After about 10 minutes, add the oil and remaining 3 cups of flour. Knead well until you have a soft dough.
Preheat the oven to 400 °F.
Cook onion in oil over high heat until translucent.
Add the meat to the pan and continue to cook until any liquid from the meat evaporates.
Add the baharat mix, cinnamon, black pepper, paprika and salt and continue to cook while stirring until fragrant.
Mix the bell peppers, tomatoes, tomato paste and parsley to the pan. Cook for 5 more minutes. Add pinenuts. Stir well and set to one side.
Take a piece of dough (the size of a fist) and roll it flat in to an oval shape on a floured surface. Place it on a baking sheet.
Top the dough with the meat mixture. Pinch the ends of the dough oval together, to create a boat-like shape. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes until golden.
Serve with warmed pickles.
