Sandwich with beef meatballs and yoghurt dressing for a nice warm summer evening. In Turkey they use ground lamb for this. But that's optional..
Ingredients:
4 ounces ground beef
2 onions
2 garlic cloves
salt and pepper
parsley or mint
1/2 cucumber
olive oil
thick yoghurt
turkish bread
2 tomatoes
lettuce
Directions:
1. Chop onions, 1 clove of garlic and parsley.
2. Mix the onions, garlic and parsley with the ground beef and a bit of salt and pepper.
3. With your hands make walnut shaped little meatballs.
4. You can either grill the meatballs, or cook them in some olive oil.
5. In the meantime, mix the yoghurt with garlic and mint.
6. Slice tomatoes, lettuce and cucumber.
7. Now take a turkish bread (flat, round thick bread) cut in 4 squares, open them and 'butter up' the bread with the yoghurt dressing.
8. Put in lettuce tomatoes, cucumbers and meatballs, and finish with some extra yoghurt dressing.
