About this Event
Join Ukrainian chef Anna Voloshyna for a lively and interactive online class where you'll discover how to make Lahmacun, a beloved flatbread topped with a fragrant mix of ground meat, fresh vegetables, and warming spices. Often referred to as "Turkish pizza," Lahmacun has deep roots in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine, with variations found across Turkey, Armenia, and Lebanon.
In this class, you’ll begin by learning how to make a beautifully tender and thin dough from scratch. Anna will walk you through crafting the flavorful topping using ground lamb or beef, tomatoes, onions, and spices like cumin and sumac that give the dish its rich, aromatic profile. While the Lahmacun bakes to crispy perfection, Anna will share fun facts and regional insights about this dish, known for being a quick street-food favorite and a comforting home-cooked meal.
By the end of the session, you’ll not only have mastered a new recipe but also gained a deeper appreciation for the cultural heritage behind this delicious flatbread. Whether you’re cooking for family or hosting friends, Lahmacun is guaranteed to impress. Spaces are limited, so grab your spot now and join in on the fun of cooking this Middle Eastern classic!
