Ingredients
- 450 g lamb kebab meat with mint and honey
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons pine nuts
- 2 spring onions, thinly sliced
- 4 garlic and herb flatbreads or naan breads
- 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 bunch fresh mint leaves, roughly torn
- 1 medium tomato, diced
- 1 lemon
- 1/3 cup plain Greek-style yoghurt
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Heat half the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the lamb kebab meat and break it up with a wooden spoon. Cook for about 5 minutes until golden and cooked through.
- Add ground cumin, pine nuts, and sliced spring onions. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Remove from heat.
- Preheat oven to 220°C (200°C fan). Line two large trays with baking paper. Place flatbreads on trays and sprinkle with mozzarella. Spoon lamb mixture evenly over the cheese.
- Bake for about 6 minutes, or until flatbreads are golden and cheese is melted.
- While baking, combine mint, diced tomato, and remaining olive oil in a bowl. Season lightly with salt if desired.
- Juice half the lemon and mix the juice into the yoghurt. Season to taste. Cut remaining lemon half into wedges.
- Remove flatbreads from oven and transfer to serving board. Drizzle with lemon yoghurt and top with mint and tomato mix. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
Notes
- Add chili flakes or paprika for extra heat.
- Swap mozzarella for another mild melting cheese.
- Top with toasted sesame seeds or extra pine nuts for crunch.
- Add cucumber to the mint and tomato mix for freshness.
- Add fresh toppings and yoghurt after reheating to avoid sogginess.
