Armenian Pizza
Yields5 Servings
Ingredients
 5 Toufayan Wraps
 2 Garlic cloves
 1 Medium onion, coarsely chopped, about 1/2 C.
 1 Small red sweet pepper, seeded and coarsely chopped
 1 lb 1 pound ground lamb (or ground beef)
 1 14.5-oz can diced tomatoes
 1 6-oz can tomato paste
 ¼ cup Snipped fresh parsley
 ½ tsp Ground cumin
 ½ tsp Cayenne pepper
 Kosher salt or table salt and Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
 Fresh snipped parsley
 Lemon wedges
Directions
1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

2

Pulse the garlic in a food processor to mince it. Add the onion and pulse to chop, then add the red pepper and pulse to chop. Add the lamb, tomato paste, tomatoes, parsley, cumin, cayenne, and salt and pepper; process until everything is very well chopped. The consistency should be wet and pasty, like hummus.

3

Spread a thin layer of the meat mixture onto your wrap with the back of a spoon, all the way to the edge. Bake on a baking sheet for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are browned and the meat is cooked through. If the tortilla begins to inflate in the oven, pop it with a fork from the top.

4

To serve, squeeze some lemon over the top, fold the pizza into quarters or serve into slices.
