Nutritional values

Lahmacun is derived from Arabic and means meat with dough. This is exactly what it is essentially. Pepp and healthy essential oils bring spices and herbs. The pine nuts and olive oil provide unsaturated fatty acids, which have a positive effect on the health of our blood vessels.

Minced beef is better available and scores with more muscle strengthening protein. It is also possible to prepare Lahmacun vegatarian, for this you leave out the minced meat without substitution, use a substitute product from soy or cooked lentils.

Preparation steps

1.

For the crusts: Mix all ingredients, knead to form smooth dough and allow to stand for about 1 hour in warm place.

2.

For the toppings: Peel and finely chop onion and garlic. Fry ground beef in hot oil until crumbly, add onions and garlic and stir in cumin and cinnamon. Add tomato paste, let cook then add tomatoes. Simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until everything is creamy. Finally mix in cilantro to taste, season with salt and allow to cool.

3.

Knead dough on floured surface. Divide dough into four parts and roll each into an oval. Spread filling on each crust, while leaving an outer edge of about 1.5 cm (1/2 inch) free. Pull dough and squeeze ends. Brush with oil and place on baking sheet lined with baking paper. Sprinkle pizzas with pine nuts and bake in preheated oven at 200°C (approximately 400°F) for about 15-20 minutes until crispy. Serve sprinkled with parsley.
