As much as I love Lahmacun, I still put this beautiful boat-like flatbread a level higher. The Turkish call this Pide, not pizza. If you ever visit Turkey, they pull out planks upon planks of this pide from their huge wood fire ovens. If you follow my Instagram stories, you will know that I didn't get leoparding at the bottom of my crust during 1st try. Leoparding is a term used in the pizza realm. It refers to the charred spots which resemble a leopard skin. It is crucial as it will give the crust that chewiness texture. In order to achieve that leoparding at home, I have to precook the pide in a preheated skillet, then finish it off in a preheated oven on top of a pizza stone or an inverted baking tray. Instead of using the same toppings as my Lahmacun, I decided to give it a Chinese twist. I fuse the iconic chicken lettuce wraps idea with this Turkish pide. I am sure that there will be some angry Turkish knocking at my door tho, well, but at least I didn't put any pineapples on my pide. Lol! I made a mistake by cooking the green onions with the chicken; during the final baking process, the green onions were burnt. If you read the recipe below carefully, the green onions are used as a garnish. I also pricked the sides of the dough before forming it into a boat-like shape. this is to prevent the dough from puffing up and go outta shape during the final baking process. Without much delay, let's get started with the recipe.
