Ingredients

  • 500g Barossa Fine Foods lamb koftas
  • 2 Lebanese cucumbers
  • ¼ bunch mint
  • ¼ bunch flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 small red onion, finely sliced
  • Mixed salad leaves

Turkish Yogurt Dip

  • 1½ cups Greek yoghurt
  • ¼ cup olive oil

Flat Bread

  • 1 cup Greek yoghurt
  • 1 ½ cups self-raising flour

Method

  1. First, make the yoghurt dip, place the yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice and minced garlic in a bowl. Season with sea salt and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are well combined.
  2. To make the flatbread, combine the yoghurt, self-raising flour, a pinch of sea salt and the chopped parsley in a large bowl. Mix until a dough forms, knead for a couple of minutes, then rest for 5 minutes. Divide the dough into equal portions (4 large or 8 smaller). Roll each portion into a ball, then roll out on a floured board to a thickness of 2–3 mm.
  3. In a dry fry pan over medium heat, cook each flatbread for 2-3 minutes on one side and 1 minute on the other until puffed, lightly browned and cooked through.
  4. Slice the cucumbers and red onions, mix with the salad leaves and herbs.
  5. Cook the koftas on the barbecue or in a frypan, serve with the salad, flatbreads and salad.
