3. DIRECTIONS
Form Flatbread
1. Combine yeast, sugar and 3/4 cup boiled water in a bowl, let sit until foamy,
about 5-7 minutes.
2. Combine flour and salt separately, fold in the yeast mixture, and knead until
soft, smooth dough ball forms. Cover the dough in a bowl with plastic wrap and
let it rise for about an hour.
3. Punch down dough, divide into 4 portions, and form them into a ball. Transfer
dough balls to a floured baking sheet. Cover with a damp tea towel and let rest
for another 45 minutes, or refrigerate until needed.
Create Sauce
1. In a large bowl, combine oil, tomato paste and RawSpiceBar Baharat Spice. Add
in lamb, garlic, tomato, onion, and season with salt (optional).
Add Toppings
1. Preheat oven to 475°, use a pizza stone in bottom third of oven.
2. Roll out each dough ball fairly thin, into a 10” disk. Transfer dough to a
parchment paper, spoon about 4 tablespoons of topping onto dough, spread
evenly with your fingers.
3. Bake until the crust is golden brown and topping is cooked, between 6-10
minutes, depending on the thickness of your crust and topping layer. Repeat
with remaining dough and toppings.
