Za'atar Lamb M'smen Wraps with Lemon Cucumber Yogurt

25 Mins

Prep Time: 25 minutes

Serves 4

Ingredients:

1 pound Ground Lamb
1 Red Onion, finely diced
4 Tbsp. Za’atar Spread
2 pieces M'smen Flatbread (you could also use pita or naan)
8 ounces Plain Yogurt
10 leaves Mint, sliced thinly
1/4 cup Cucumber, finely diced (we used Lemon Cucumber but any thin skinned cuke will work!)
1/4 cup Red Tomato, diced
1/2 Tbsp. Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste

In a small mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, mint and cucumber. Season with salt and pepper to taste and set aside.

In another bowl, stir together the ground lamb, red onion, za’atar and a pinch of salt. Shape into 4 long skinny loaves or “kefta.” In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil until hot. Add the kefta and brown all over, until no longer pink inside, about 12 minutes.

Place kefta on each piece of m'smen and garnish with the yogurt sauce and diced tomato. Roll into a cone shape and wrap with wax paper or tin foil. Serve immediately.
