Lamb pittas


you will need
250g (8oz) minced lamb
50g (1¾oz) white breadcrumbs
1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
Dash of Tabasco sauce
1 level tsp ground coriander
1 level tsp ground cumin Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 mini pitta bread, to serve
For the dressing:
½ x 200g carton Greek yogurt
¼ of a cucumber
You'll also need: Skewers
1. Place the minced lamb in a bowl and add the other ingredients and mix well. Divide the mixture into 12 and shape each into a ball. Thread the balls on to skewers. Cook the lamb balls under a hot grill for 10-15 mins, turning them occasionally so they cook through.
2. To make the dressing: Tip the yogurt into a bowl and stir in the cucumber and seasoning.
3. Warm the pitta bread before serving. Slit open the bread and fill each with 3 balls of lamb and spoon on some of the dressing. Alternatively, serve the lamb still on the skewers with the pitta bread and dressing.
