Ingredients

For the lamb mixture

2 lb (1kg) Ground lamb / lamb mince
1 Red onion finely chopped
3 Fresh garlic cloves minced/crushed
3 tbsp fresh parsley finely chopped
2 tsp fresh thyme chopped
2 tsp Dried oregano
3 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper

For the wraps

8 flour wraps / flour tortillas

For the yogurt sauce

2 cups Greek yogurt
1-2 tsp Fresh lemon juice.
2 tbsp fresh parsley finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh mint finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh dill finely chopped
salt and pepper to taste

For the chopped salad

2 cups cucumber diced
2 cups tomatoes diced
1 red onion finely diced
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Combine the lamb, chopped onion, garlic, parsley, thyme, oregano, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
Mix well (your hands are the best tools here).
Portion the mixture into 8 equal balls.
Smash each ball onto a wrap, using wet hands spread the lamb out into a thin, even layer.
To cook, heat a large frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Spray with non-stick cooking spray and add a drizzle of olive oil.
Add the wraps, meat-side down, and allow to cook for 4-5 minutes until deeply golden.
Carefully flip over and cook for another minute then remove from the pan.
While the wraps are cooking, mix together the ingredients for the yogurt sauce and the chopped salad.
To assemble, add a generous spoonful of sauce to each wrap, add the salad then finish with fresh herbs and chopped chillies (optional).
Serve immediately.
