SALAD
–
- 1/2 cup of cooked wholemeal couscous
- 2 small or 4 snack-size Lebanese cucumber, cut into rounds

LET'S GET STARTED
- Combine the lamb, grated onion, spices, coriander and salt and pepper in a bowl. Combine by kneading with your hands for a minute to ensure the mixture becomes sticky. Divide the lamb mince into 12 portions and then shape around cinnamon stick “skewers”. To make this easier wet your hands a little. Brush kofta with oil.
- Heat a griddle pan over a medium-high heat and cook kofta for 2-3 minutes on each side.
- For the salad, place the cooked couscous, cucumber, tomato, onion, parsley, sumac, vinegar, salt and pepper and oil into a bowl and toss.
- Divide hummus between the tortillas and spread in the centre. Remove cinnamon sticks skewers from lamb and place 3 kofta on top of hummus the top with a few spoonfuls of salad. Wrap and serve as is or brush with extra oil and place in a pan or sandwich press to toast lightly for a minute.
- Place on plates and garnish with a dollop of yoghurt on top. Sprinkle with a little extra sumac.
