Preparation Instructions
Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the Dough
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Let the Dough Rise
Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Prepare the Topping
In a mixing bowl, combine ground meat, chopped onion, garlic, tomatoes, red bell pepper, parsley, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Shape the Lahmacun
Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C). Divide the dough into small balls and roll each into a thin round. Place on a baking sheet.
Add Topping
Spread the meat mixture evenly over each round of dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes until the edges are crispy.
Serve
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm with fresh parsley and lemon wedges.
