Ingredients
- ¾ lb ground lamb
- 1 lb store-bought pizza dough or naan
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
- ½ cup canned diced tomatoes, drained
- 2 tbsp pomegranate molasses (or red wine vinegar)
- 1.5 tsp baharat spice blend (or 1 tsp cumin + 0.5 tsp cinnamon + pinch cayenne)
Instructions
- 1
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Brown ground lamb, breaking it up with a spoon, until no pink remains, ~5 minutes.
- 2
Stir in diced onion and cook until softened, ~2 minutes. Add drained tomatoes, pomegranate molasses, and baharat; stir to combine.
- 3
Remove from heat. Taste and adjust salt and spice; the filling should taste bold and tangy.
- 4
Preheat oven to 425°F. Divide dough into 4 balls and roll or stretch each into a thin 7-inch oval on a sheet pan.
- 5
Spoon lamb mixture onto each oval, leaving a 0.5-inch border. Fold edges slightly inward to cradle the filling without fully enclosing it.
- 6
Bake until edges are golden and crispy, ~8 minutes. Drizzle with olive oil and serve hot.
