Lahmajoun / Lahm-Ajun / Lahm-Ajeen Lahmajoun / Lahm-Ajun / Lahm-Ajeen
This wonderfully delicious dish is claimed by many countries: Turkey, Lebanon, Armenia, etc. But no matter who claims it, it's simple and VERY good.Essentially, it is a round (or elongated), thin pieces of dough topped with minced meat (most commonly beef or lamb), onions, tomatoes, parley and baked till meat is cooked.PS: You can use a thin dough, or store bought Tortillas (much quicker...) Also, although pomegranate molasses are optional, they are but highly recommended - many supermarkets , Amazon and Middle Eastern shops carry them; its tartness is just perfect for this dish. If you skip the pomegranate molasses, do squeeze some lemon wedges just before servingPPS: I sometimes split the filling in 2 parts: One without the tomatoes but with 5 additional table spoons of pomegranate molasses. This produces a nicely tart version. It's worth a try!
