Ingredients
- 500 g lamb mince, about 1.1 lb
- 1 small brown onion, finely grated
- 2 cloves garlic, finely grated
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon, optional but excellent
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 200 g Greek yoghurt, about 3/4 cup
- 1/2 cup mixed herbs, packed, finely chopped (mint + parsley are ideal)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice, 15 ml
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 Lebanese cucumber, diced (or 1/2 large cucumber)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
- 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup baby spinach or rocket, arugula
- 1/4 cup toasted almonds or pistachios, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup pomegranate arils, optional
- 8 small flatbreads, or 4 large, cut in half
- Sticky Balsamic Premium Pomegranate, to finish
- Extra virgin olive oil, optional
- crumbled feta, optional
Directions
In a bowl, mix the Greek yoghurt, chopped herbs, lemon juice and salt. Taste and adjust (more lemon if you want it brighter, more salt if you want it punchier). Set aside.
Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, then add lamb mince, grated onion, garlic, cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, cinnamon (if using), salt and pepper. Cook for 8–10 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and slightly crisp in spots. If there’s excess fat, spoon a little off (leave some for flavour).
In a bowl, combine cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, spinach/rocket, nuts, and pomegranate arils (if using). You can leave it dry and fresh, or add a tiny splash of olive oil.
Warm flatbreads in a dry pan for 20–30 seconds per side, or wrap in foil and warm in the oven for a few minutes.
Spread each flatbread with herby yoghurt, top with warm spiced lamb, then pile on the crunchy salad. Add feta if you’re using it.
Drizzle Sticky Balsamic Premium Pomegranate (or your favorite!) over the top. Don’t be shy — this is what ties the lamb, herbs and crunch together.
