1 kg. low fat minced meat
1 or 2 kg tomatoes
5 bunches of parsley
200 gr. fresh green pepper
100 gr. garlic (fresh or dried)
1 spoon of pepper paste
black pepper
salt
Parsley is seperated in to its leaves. Garlic is cleaned and seeds of the peppers are taken out. After washing the vegetables, all ingredients are chopped with a special big knife called ‘zırk’ or they are minced in a kitchen robot, then the meat is added and mixed properly. The mixture is made Lahmacun with pitta dough and cooked by pitta workers in the pitta oven.
P.S: In terms of taste, it is quite important to mince all the ingredients with ‘zırk’, to add various spices, to cook in a stone oven with the fire of oak wood.
