Instructions
- 1
Mix the warm water, yeast, and sugar and let it foam for 8 minutes.
8 min08:00 - 2
Knead a soft dough with the flour, yeasted water, olive oil, and half of the salt.
- 3
Let the dough rise for 60 minutes.
1 hr60:00 - 4
Remove the watery seed centers from the tomatoes, then finely chop the tomatoes, onion, and parsley.
- 5
Mix the ground beef, chopped vegetables, pepper paste, pomegranate molasses, allspice, black pepper, and remaining salt.
- 6
Divide the dough into 6 balls, roll each into a thin oval, and spread the beef filling to the edges.
- 7
Bake the lahm bi ajeen in a 230°C oven for 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges brown.
12 min12:00 - 8
Bring the hot flatbreads to the table with lemon and do not stack them covered, or the dough will soften.
💡 Tip: If the filling stays too wet, the dough base becomes soggy; reducing the seedy part of the tomatoes gives a crisper result in a home oven.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve lahm bi ajeen hot from the oven with lemon, parsley, and ayran if desired, like a pide tray.
