• Mozzarella cheese (shredded) - 100g
• Ground lamb or beef - 200g
• Onion (finely chopped) - 50g
• Red bell pepper (finely chopped) - 50g
• Garlic (minced) - 2 cloves
• Tomato paste - 1 tablespoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F).
2. In a bowl, combine almond flour, egg, and mozzarella cheese. Mix well until a dough forms.
3. Divide the dough into two equal parts and roll each part into a thin flatbread shape on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
4. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and red bell pepper, sautéing until softened, about 5 minutes.
5. Add minced garlic and ground meat to the skillet. Cook until the meat is browned, breaking it up with a spatula, about 7-10 minutes.
6. Stir in tomato paste, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until well combined.
7. Spread the meat mixture evenly over each flatbread, then bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until the edges are crispy.
8. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, slice, and serve hot.
