Knead a smooth dough with the flour, yeast, warm water, olive oil, and half of the salt.
Let the dough rise for 55 minutes.
Reduce the watery seeded part of the tomatoes and dice them small, then grate the onion.
Mix the minced lamb, tomatoes, onion, pomegranate molasses, allspice, cinnamon, black pepper, and remaining salt.
Roll the dough into 6 thin ovals and spread the meat mixture all the way to the edges.
Bake the open flatbreads at 220°C for 14 minutes, until the meat cooks and the edges brown.
Serve hot with parsley and lemon wedges.
💡 Tip: If spreading the raw meat mixture onto the dough, do not leave it too watery; reducing the seedy part of the tomato keeps the base from turning doughy.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Share hot sfiha pieces like a tray of flatbreads with lemon, pickles, and ayran if desired.
