Lahmacun, often referred to as “Turkish pizza,” is a thin, crispy flatbread topped with a savory mixture of ground meat, spices, and vegetables. Typically made with lamb or beef, the topping is blended with ingredients like tomatoes, onion, garlic, parsley, and spices such as paprika and cumin, creating a flavorful spread. Originating from Middle Eastern and Turkish cuisine, lahmacun is known for its versatility and is often served rolled with fresh greens, lemon juice, and sometimes yogurt. Nutritionally, lahmacun is a source of protein from the meat and fiber from the vegetables, but it can be high in sodium due to the seasoning spread. The thin crust makes it a lighter option compared to heavier traditional pizzas, though its calorie count will depend on portion size and additional toppings. Enjoyed as street food or a light meal, it offers a balance of flavor and nutrients when eaten mindfully.
