Lahmajun: Flatbreads with Meat

An amazing meat appetizer for any gathering! Very tasty. Lahmajo (lahmacun, in Turkish) is an Arab dish — the name means "meat with dough," or flatbreads with meat. It's very popular across the Middle East. Herbs are rolled up inside the flatbread like a wrap, and it's eaten with lemon. You can make the flatbreads with onion and any vegetables or meat.

    Step 19:

  • Knead the dough and let it rest for one hour. Grind the meat and all the ingredients together; the filling should be on the runny side. Once the dough has risen, divide it into small balls. Roll each out thin, to the size of your skillet. Heat the skillet over high heat, then cook each flatbread in the dry pan for 1–2 minutes per side. They bake very quickly and puff up like pita. Preheat the oven to 480°F (250°C). Spread the flatbreads with the meat mixture (spread it on in a thin layer). Put them in the oven for 3–5 minutes (depending on your oven). Serve lahmajo with a wedge of lemon.
