Instructions

Step 1

• Preheat the oven on upper and lower heat, without fan to its maximum heat, around 280C (536F) is fine. Place a pizza stone or baking steel on the bottom of the oven. You can use the back of a cast iron pan as well.

Step 2

• To make the dough, mix the flour, yeast, sugar, water, and the salt in a bowl and knead for 2 minutes.

Step 3

• When the dough becomes smooth and less sticky, cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 10 minutes in a warm place.

Step 4

• Meanwhile, for the meat mixture, pulse the onions, garlic and sucuk in a food processor until they become a paste or grate the onions and garlic if you are not using cured meat. Cured meat helps enhance the flavour because it is aged and fermented.

Step 5

• Mix the paste, minced meat, tomato puree, yogurt, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and the isot. If the mixture isn’t juicy enough, add a couple of teaspoons of water to spread the mixture easier.

Step 6

• Add in the parsley and give it a last mix.

Step 7

• To make the dough, divide the dough into 9 equal balls. Dust the work surface and the rolling pin with flour and roll out the balls around 30 cm (12 in). Place the dough on a peel and remove the excess flour. Spread a heaped tablespoon of mixture on the dough and slide the lahmacun onto the hot stones in the oven. Bake for about 2 minutes and repeat with the rest.

Step 8

• To make with lavash, heat a pan around a minute and place the lavash in it. Spread a heaped tablespoon of the meat mixture on the lavash and cook it around a minute. Then, transfer the pan to the oven’s top shelf and bake for 2-3 minutes.

Step 9

• To enjoy the lahmacun at its best, thinly slice a red onion and mix it with sumac and olive oil. Place the onions on lahmacun with parsley, squeeze some lemon and roll it. If you also have a glass of ayran then it is a perfect feast!
