Yield Makes 4 breads (2 servings per bread)

Number Of Ingredients 24

For lamb
1/2 pound boneless leg of lamb steaks, trimmed, cut into 3 x 1/2 x 1/4-inch strips
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
For dough
1 cup warm water (105°F. to 115°F.)
4 teaspoons dry yeast
1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
Charmoula topping
2/3 cup thinly sliced red bell pepper
2/3 cup thinly sliced red onion
2/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper

Steps:

  • Make lamb:
  • Stir all ingredients in bowl to blend. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Chill at least 2 hours and up to 1 day.
  • Make dough:
  • Pour 1 cup warm water into large bowl; sprinkle yeast over. Let stand until mixture is foamy, about 10 minutes. Mix in 1/4 cup oil and salt. Combine both flours in medium bowl. Stir enough flour mixture into yeast mixture 1/2 cup at a time to form slightly sticky dough. Knead on floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Oil large bowl; add dough and turn to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let stand in warm area until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add lamb mixture; sauté until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer to plate.
  • Make charmoula:
  • Combine all ingredients in medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Punch dough down. Divide into 4 equal pieces. Cover; let stand 10 minutes. Preheat oven to 450°F. Roll out each dough piece on floured surface to 7-inch square. Top each with 1/4 of charmoula, then 1/4 of lamb, pressing to adhere to dough. Oil 2 large baking sheets. Using large spatula, transfer breads to sheets.
  • Bake breads until cooked through and brown on bottom, about 15 minutes. Serve warm.
