Ingredients
- 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- ½ Teaspoon: Cardamom Pods (Crushed)
- ½ Teaspoon: Cinnamon
- ½ Teaspoon: Nutmeg
- Salt and Pepper
- 300g / 10oz Lamb (Diced or Shredded)
- 1 Medium White Onion (Chopped)
- 1 Medium Green Bell Pepper (Chopped)
- 100g / 1 Cup Red Cabbage (Chopped)
- 4-6 Pita Breads
- To Garnish:
- Tomatoes
- Lettuce
- Tzatziki
- Cucumber
Preparation
Step 1
Place the lamb into a bowl. Add the olive oil, cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well and leave to marinate for about 20 minutes.
Step 2
Heat the griddle pan on a medium-high heat. Once hot, toss the prepared onion, green bell pepper and red cabbage in a little bit of olive oil before adding to the pan.
Step 3
Cook the vegetables until they’re soft, then remove from them from the pan and set aside for later.
Step 4
While the pan is still warm, add the lamb and cook until tender. Remove the lamb and place it in a bowl while you warm the pita.
Step 5
In a preheated oven, place the pita bread until it’s soft and warm. You have to work while the bread is hot, so make sure all your ingredients are near by.
Step 6
If it helps, make some small vertical slices on the underside of the pita to help you roll it up. Fill it with the salad, tomatoes, lamb, vegetables and finally finish it off with some tzatziki and slices of cucumber. Roll up the pita, wrap it in tin/aluminium foil and enjoy!
What you will need: A griddle pan and tin/aluminium foil.
