Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast, salt, and sugar. Gradually add the warm water and olive oil, mixing until a dough forms.
  2. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic.
  3. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
  4. While the dough is rising, prepare the topping. In a large pan, cook the ground beef, onion, bell peppers, and tomatoes over medium heat until the beef is browned and the vegetables are soft. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  6. Divide the risen dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into an oval shape, about 1/2 inch thick.
  7. Spread the beef and vegetable mixture evenly over each piece of dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  8. Bake the pides in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the topping is bubbly.
  9. Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the hot pides before serving.
