Ingredients
For the Flatbread:
4 large flatbreads (homemade or store-bought)
2 tablespoons olive oil
For the Lamb Topping:
1 lb (450g) ground lamb
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup pine nuts (optional)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
For the Tzatziki Drizzle:
1 cup Greek yogurt
1 small cucumber, grated and excess water squeezed out
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh dill, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preparing the Tzatziki:
In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Add chopped dill if using, adjust seasoning to taste, and set aside in the fridge to chill.
Preparing the Lamb Topping:
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground lamb, breaking it apart with a spoon.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until the lamb is browned and the onion is soft, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the cumin, smoked paprika, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat.
Assembling and Cooking the Flatbread:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Brush each flatbread lightly with olive oil and place on a baking sheet.
Distribute the lamb mixture evenly over the flatbreads. Sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese and pine nuts if using.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the flatbreads are golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
Serving:
Drizzle the tzatziki sauce over the warm flatbreads.
Garnish with fresh parsley.
Cut into slices and serve immediately.
