The meat-topped flatbread known as lahmajoun is popular in Turkey and Armenia. We’ve created an easy weeknight version by swapping the usual homemade flatbread dough for store-bought pita breads. Simply combine the meat mixture in a food processor and spread onto pita, then bake in a hot oven. When processing the mixture, don’t overdo it or the meat may become tough. Pulse a few times, just until combined. If you like, finish the dish with a sprinkling of fresh herbs and a drizzle of cooling yogurt to complement the spiced meat.

Easy weeknight dinner
My family enjoys most Milkstreet recipes. This was no different. The flavor was great. I served with hummus and the Milkstreet cauliflower and chickpea recipe. Next time I will also make a mint yogurt sauce.
