Ingredients:

  • 1 1/4 kg lamb
  • 2 tsp mint
  • 4 tsp mint sauce
  • 200 g yoghurt

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 150C/130C Fan/Gas 2. Put the lamb in the middle of a double sheet of foil and sprinkle on the mint. Season and wrap to make a loose parcel - seal the edges but leave room for the air to circulate. Put in a roasting tin and cook for 5-6 hours.
  2. Mix the tomatoes, red pepper, cucumber and onion in a bowl.
  3. When the lamb is cooked, shred the meat using two forks - it will be very tender, so this should be easy to do.
  4. Preheat the grill. Sprinkle the pittas with a few drops of water and grill for 1-2 minutes until they puff up slightly. Cut in half and fill with the lamb, mint sauce, mixed salad, lettuce and yoghurt. Serve with extra salad.
