Instructions
1
Prep
If making dough from scratch, mix bread flour, yeast, salt and water in a small bowl; otherwise use a rested ball of dough. Cover and let sit at room temperature for 45 minutes until visibly puffed.
2
Build
Finely chop the onion, bell pepper, tomato and garlic. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, bell pepper, tomato, tomato paste, garlic, paprika, cumin, Aleppo pepper, salt and black pepper, mixing with your hands until evenly distributed.
3
Roll
On a floured surface, roll or stretch the dough into a thin oval about 1/4 inch thick and roughly 10 inches long.
4
Bake
Slide the flatbread onto a preheated baking sheet and bake at 475°F for 12–14 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the meat is browned.
5
Plate
Transfer to a plate, scatter with parsley and sumac, and serve with a lemon wedge.
