About Lahmacun with cheese

Lahmacun with cheese is a savory flatbread originating from Turkish cuisine, celebrated for its rich flavors and versatility. The base is thin dough topped with a spiced mixture of ground meat—typically beef or lamb—combined with onions, tomatoes, peppers, and a medley of aromatic herbs and spices such as parsley, cumin, and paprika. This variation includes a generous layer of melted cheese, adding creamy richness to the dish. Lahmacun is traditionally baked in hot ovens, resulting in a crispy yet soft texture. Nutritionally, it offers protein from the meat and cheese and fiber from the vegetables, making it satisfying and nourishing. However, it can be high in sodium and saturated fats depending on the cheese and seasoning used. Pairing it with fresh salad and lemon juice balances its richness and adds a healthy touch, making it a beloved street food and family meal option.
