Lahmacun is a popular dish of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean origin. Often referred to as "Turkish pizza," it consists of a thin, round piece of dough topped with a mixture of minced meat, usually lamb or beef, combined with tomatoes, onions, garlic, and a variety of spices such as paprika and cumin. Unlike pizza, lahmacun does not include cheese. After being baked, it is typically served with fresh parsley, lemon, and sometimes vegetables like tomatoes or onions. Lahmacun is usually rolled or folded and eaten by hand, making it a popular street food in regions where it is served.
