    It’s not even Kebap pizza, it’s a traditional Turkish dish, called Lamakhun (spelling? ) that probably predates pizza. It’s often called Turkish pizza, so that people unaware of the dish can understand the style.

      No, it’s not lahmacun, everyone here knows and enjoys lahmacun. Kebab-Pizza is an italian pizza with döner-kebab meat shavings on it, often accompanied by sheeps cheese and a yoghurt sauce.

        In Glasgow, they do pizzas with slices of doner kebap as a topping. It’s a common ingredient in a munchy box.

          Yes, in Germany too, that’s what you get if you order a kebap pizza in Germany.

          A lahmacun is something entirely different, you can get it with kebab-meat too, and sometimes it is called a “turkish pizza” but it’s not the “kebap pizza”

        From Wikipedia:

        Lahmacun Lahmacun with salad Alternative names Lahmadjoune, Lahmajun, lahmajoun, lahm b’ajin, lahmajo, lahmajin, lahamagine, lahmatzoun Course Main Region or state Levant[1] Serving temperature Warm Main ingredients Wheat flour, minced meat, vegetables and herbs

         Wikimedia Commons logo Media: Lahmacun
        

        Lahmacun,[a] lahmajun, or lahmajo[b] is a Middle Eastern flatbread topped with minced meat (most commonly beef or lamb), minced vegetables, and herbs such as onions, garlic, tomatoes, red peppers, and parsley, flavored with spices such as chili pepper and paprika, then baked.[3] Lahmacun is often wrapped around vegetables, including pickled vegetables, tomatoes, peppers, onions, lettuce, parsley, and roasted eggplant.

        The word lahmacun is attested in explorer Evliya Çelebi’s Seyahatnâme a travelogue from the 17th century, according to Sevan Nişanyan, it is the oldest Turkish-language use of the word.[21]

        Hmmm. Maybe not?

            Kebbab pizza

            This is exactly what I was picturing reading “Kebap pizza”. Slices of gyro sprinkled on a cheese pizza like pepperoni. It sounds great.

      Nah, i had actual pizza dough with the ingredients that would normally go into a Döner Kebap. I know about that turkish dish, but that dough is very different to the one used in italian pizza.

      Lahmacun, with the c pronounced as a j, consistent with Turkish orthography (the c with a squiggle under it is a different sound, pronounced ch).
