Directions

  1. Place all the marinade ingredients in a zip lock food bag with the diced lamb. Shake to coat and place in the fridge for a minimum of 12 hours/overnight. 
  2. Make the flatbreads: Add the flour, seasoning, salt and pepper and oil to a bowl and pour in the water, stirring continuously until no dry bits of flour remain. Lift the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead it for 5 minutes until the dough feels elastic. Wrap in cling film and place in the fridge. 
  3. Mix all the ingredients for the garlic yoghurt together in a bowl. 
  4. Remove the dough from the fridge and separate into two. Flour your bench and use a rolling pin and your hands to shape each piece into a circle. 
  5. Skewer the lamb and cook on a medium-high heat until nicely seared on all sides. 
  6. Wipe some oil around a separate pan on a medium heat and fry the flatbreads for a couple of minutes on each side until bubbles appear and they start to puff up. 
  7. Serve the flatbreads on a plate with the Greek yoghurt, lamb, salad, feta and chips - wrapping it all up together to merge the flavours.
