Oman today_ This dish is very popular in Lebanon, Syria, Palestine, Jordan, and even among Lebanese communities in South American countries such as Brazil and Argentina. Its base is made from a soft, thin dough baked in a circular or square shape, filled with a mixture of minced meat (usually lamb or beef), onions, tomatoes, spices, olives, sesame seeds, mushrooms, and pizza cheese. The ingredients are spread over the dough and baked in the oven until the bread becomes crispy and the filling is fully cooked. Due to the similarity of the dough and toppings, this dish resembles a pizza. In some regions, Sfiha is known by different names, and in certain countries, it is also called “Lahm bi Ajeen” or “Lahm Ba’ajeen.”
