Total Time: 37 minutes
Makes: 2 flatbreads

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing dough
  • 3 leeks, white and pale green parts only, cleaned and cut crosswise into ¼-inch slices
  • 10 scallions, thinly sliced
  • ½ tsp salt, divided
  • ½ tsp pepper, divided
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh mint, plus more for garnishing
  • ¼ cup chopped parsley
  • ½ lb. ground lamb
  • 1 batch flatbread dough (recipe below)
  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • ¼ tsp red hot pepper flakes

Flatbread Dough

  • ¾ Tbsp active dry yeast
  • 1 ½ cup lukewarm water
  • ¾ Tbsp salt
  • 1 ½ tsp granulated sugar
  • 2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling out

Instructions

  • Melt butter with olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. When the butter is melted, add the leeks and scallions and ¼ tsp salt and ¼ tsp pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, until the leeks and scallions are soft.
  • Put the leek/scallion mixture in a medium bowl and stir in the chopped mint and parsley.
  • Using the same skillet you cooked the leeks in, add the ground lamb over medium-high heat, breaking up with a spatula as it cooks. Cook until browned, about 6 minutes.
  • While the lamb is cooking, pre-heat the oven to 500 degrees and lightly flour two 12-inch round pans (can also do one at a time). Divide flatbread dough into two and on a lightly floured surface, roll each out into two thin 12-inch circles. You may have some excess dough left over. Place each round on prepared baking sheets. 
  • Lightly brush each dough round with olive oil and leaving a ½-inch border on the dough, equally divide the leek mixture, lamb, and feta across the two dough rounds. Add red pepper flakes and remaining salt and pepper.
  • Bake for about 12 minutes, or until flatbreads are turning golden and getting crispy on the edges.
  • Garnish with more fresh mint. Slice and serve.

Flatbread Dough

  • Mix yeast and water in a large bowl and let rest for 2 minutes.
  • Stir salt, sugar, and extra-virgin olive oil into the mixture.
  • With a wooden spoon, mix the flour into the mixture. 
  • Cover bowl with a kitchen towel and let rest in a warm spot for about 2 hours. Dough should rise during this time.
