” This Friday, happiness is sponsored by these Greek Lamb Mince Flatbread Pizza 😉 ”
They are what I call ‘Spring on my Plate’, literally every ounce of this pizza screams spring-summer and Greek Flavors.
Now, who doesn’t like fresh pizza (tell me you love them….please) and there is nothing more relaxing than making one at the comfort of your home.
Adding the toppings you like and yet you can eat just that extra one as these are the skinny/extra thin types!
What is Greek Lamb Flatbread Pizza ?
I would not call this a pizza from scratch but more of a semi-homemade, as I’m using a readymade pizza base called –Lavash (which is a thin Mediterranean Bread used as crackers).
So when I insist that we should eat lamb as it’s been so long…that’s like a dream come true for my family as i m not much of a red meat eater.
I’ve been thinking of posting this recipe since November 2017 but just couldn’t because of something or the other.
So last weekend he got some extra thin lamb mince (keema as we call it in India).
And it was perfect to make these Greek Lamb Mince Flatbread Pizza, the recipe I’m sharing today!
How to Make Greek Lamb Flatbread Pizza :
The flavors of this Greek Pizza is really refreshing, light and it gives you that extra crunch in every bite.
There are days when we eat those extra thick pizza but most of the time thin-crust is what we like best and maybe with a glass of wine for me and beer for him.
The pizza process is even simpler and needs few ingredients. I’ve broken the process into 3 parts:
- Making the Lamb Mince
- Making the Garlic-Mint Sauce
- Baking the Pizza and Serving
The picture above is how the Greek Lamb Flatbread Pizza looks straight from the oven.
You can even serve it like this or just top with some fresh garlic0-mint sauce, cucumber mix and seasoning for some Bold Greek Flavors 🙂 which are Extremely Delicious!
I usually slice the flatbread pizza into these long rectangles as it’s easier to serve them, but you can simply leave it as is.
So this weekend, go ahead and try this flavorful Greek Lamb Flatbread Pizza and let me know how you liked it?
Perfect for Weekends or Weeknight Meal. This recipe serves 4 people and all 4 pizza can be made at once (bakes in 8 minutes)
