Quick Monday meals sorted with these spiced lamb pita pockets. Making cooking faster, simpler and tastier than ever!
300g lamb mince
2 sprigs of mint, chopped finely
1 tbs cummin
1 tbs onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
2 Tbsp honey
2 Tbsp toasted pinenuts
Salt & pepper to season.
4 pita pockets
Lettuce
Cucumber
Tomatoes
Red onion
Feta
Grilled Haloumi (optional)
Hommus
Homemade tzatziki*** see notes
In a bowl mix lamb, spices, pinenuts and honey. Mix together and shape into 16 evenly shaped flat oval shapes. (For enhanced flavour, refrigerate minimum 2hrs or overnight but not necessary for a quick meal)
On a hot griddle pan, place lamb down and cook on each side until golden brown.
Next assemble your pita pockets to your liking. There is no rule here.
For me. I like a layer of hommus, lettuce,
Cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, feta or Halloumi and spiced lamb, than drizzled with tzatziki (this is amazing)
Note **** For homemade tzatziki
2 heaped Tbsp Greek yoghurt
1 grated baby cucumber
1 small spring onion finely diced
1 garlic grated.
Salt & pepper to season.
Tip: Make the spiced mince into bite sized finger food tarts. Cut your flatbread or your pita into squares and spread hommus topped with some raw mince onto each square. Bake for 10 mins or until mince is golden. Dollop with Greek yoghurt or tzatziki.
