Spicy Lamb in Pita Bread Recipes

Ingredients :

2 lamb loins

2 tsp olive oil

4 large pita breads

2 medium tomatoes, sliced

Tabbouleh, to serve

hummus, to serve

Marinade:

2 cloves garlic, crushed

2 tsp onion powder

1 tsp grated fresh ginger

1 tsp ground pepper

1 tbsp finely chopped fresh coriander

1/2 cup red wine

Method :

To make Marinade: Combine all of the ingredients in a medium bowl. Trim lamb of any excess fat or sinew. Add lamb to marinade, toss to coat well and store covered with plastic wrap in refrigerator several hours or overnight, turning occasionally. Drain and reserve marinade. Heat oil in medium pan; add lamb. Cook over medium-high heat 5 minutes each side. Add the reserved marinade during the last 3 minutes and reduce to 2 tbsp over high heat. Slice lamb thinly. Place slices of lamb on warmed, opened out pita bread, top with tomato slices, Tabbouleh and Hummus. Roll bread to encase filling and serve immediately.

Hint : Onion powder is available in many supermarkets or where dried herbs and spices are sold. If unavailable, substitute finely grated fresh onion.
