What it is
The 'pizza' of the Levantine-Turkish oven (with far older roots): cracker-thin dough spread with spiced minced meat, rolled around parsley, onion and lemon. Ingredients: flour, yeast, water, salt (dough); topping: minced lamb or beef, tomatoes, green peppers, onion, parsley, tomato paste, pepper paste, cumin, paprika, isot chile. Recipe: 1) Make a lean dough; rest. 2) Process topping vegetables fine; mix with meat and spices. 3) Roll dough paper-thin; spread a whisper of topping edge to edge. 4) Bake at maximum heat 5-7 minutes until crisp and charred at the rim. Serve: scatter parsley, onion and a squeeze of lemon; roll and eat with your hands, ayran alongside. Flavor: crisp, spicy, fresh — the roll-up is the point. History: from the Arab-Turkish kitchens of the southeast (Gaziantep, Urfa, Adana), its name comes from the Arabic lahm bi-ajin, 'meat with dough'. See also: Döner Kebab, İmam Bayıldı.
