Lahmacun is a popular Middle Eastern flatbread and meat dish. It consists of a flatbread topped with minced meat, onions, and tomatoes and flavoured with parsley and chilli pepper, then baked in the oven. This delicious version uses minced lamb flavoured with cumin and cinnamon, then topped with roasted harissa CauliShoots.
