Description

Experience the bold flavors of Turkey Lahmacun with Harissa Dill Yogurt—spicy, savory, and utterly satisfying in every bite! This delightful dish combines a crispy flatbread topped with a seasoned ground turkey mixture, perfectly complemented by the creamy and zesty harissa dill yogurt.


Ingredients

Scale

Flatbread

  • 1 package of thin, crispy flatbread

Turkey Mixture

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

Harissa Dill Yogurt

  • 1 cup yogurt
  • 2 tbsp harissa paste
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Turkey Mixture: Start by finely chopping the onion and garlic. In a bowl, combine the ground turkey, onion, garlic, tomato paste, and all the spices. Mix until well blended and set aside.
  2. Prepare the Harissa Dill Yogurt: In a separate bowl, mix the yogurt, harissa paste, fresh dill, and lemon juice. Stir until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning as needed and refrigerate until serving.
  3. Assemble the Lahmacun: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Roll out the flatbread on a lightly floured surface. Spread a thin layer of the turkey mixture evenly over each flatbread.
  4. Bake the Lahmacun: Place the assembled Lahmacun on a baking sheet and bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are crispy and the turkey is cooked through.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Slice into wedges and serve with the harissa dill yogurt on the side or drizzled over the top.

Notes

  • Don’t Overcrowd: Ensure even cooking by leaving enough space between each Lahmacun on the baking sheet.
  • Preheat Well: A well-preheated oven guarantees a crispy crust.
  • Let it Rest: Allow the Lahmacun to cool slightly before slicing for cleaner edges.
  • Fresh Ingredients: Use fresh herbs and spices for the best flavor impact.
  • Experiment: Feel free to mix and match toppings to find your perfect flavor combination.
