Ya Salam Turkish-Style Pide Flatbreads

18 Aug, 2026

These Turkish-style pide have crisp golden edges, soft centres and a richly seasoned minced-lamb topping. Using ready-made pizza dough keeps the recipe approachable, while Ya Salam! Turkish All-Purpose Seasoning gives the topping instant depth.

🥣 Ingredients

400g ready-made pizza dough
350g lamb or beef mince
1 small onion, finely chopped
½ red pepper, finely diced
1 tomato, deseeded and chopped
2 tbsp Ya Salam! Turkish All-Purpose Seasoning
1 tbsp tomato purée
1 tbsp olive oil
1 beaten egg, for brushing
Fresh parsley and lemon wedges, to serve

🍳 How to Make It

Preheat the oven to 220°C fan and place a large baking tray inside to heat.
Cook the onion in the oil for 4 minutes. Add the mince and brown well, then stir in the pepper, tomato, tomato purée and seasoning. Cook until the mixture is fairly dry, then cool slightly.
Divide the dough into four and roll each piece into a long oval.
Spread the filling down the centre, leaving a border. Fold the long edges inward and pinch the ends to form a boat shape.
Transfer to baking paper, brush the dough with egg and slide onto the hot tray. Bake for 12–15 minutes until crisp and golden.
Finish with parsley and lemon, then slice and serve.
