Lahmacun with minced meat is the menu name for a Turkish-style lahmacun topped with spiced minced meat, tomato, onion and parsley; the kavurmalı version also has pieces of kavurma, meat cooked slowly in its own fat. The dough is rolled thin and baked until the edges are crisp while the topping stays savoury and tender.
In Turkey it is often finished with lemon and herbs, rolled up and eaten by hand, with ayran or salad alongside. It is a substantial flatbread meal, providing 9.2 g of protein per 100 g. Add plenty of fresh greens for a brighter, lighter-feeling plate, or share a piece as part of a larger meal.
