To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
For the Lamb Kofta:
- 1 pound ground lamb
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- Salt and pepper, to taste
For the Mint Yogurt Sauce:
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper, to taste
For the Wraps:
- 4 pita breads
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup sliced cucumber
- 1/2 cup sliced tomato
- 1/4 cup sliced red onion
To start, preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. In a large bowl, mix together the ground lamb, breadcrumbs, parsley, mint, onion, garlic, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper until well combined. Form the mixture into small, oblong-shaped patties.
Grill the lamb kofta patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through. While the kofta is cooking, make the mint yogurt sauce by mixing together the Greek yogurt, mint, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
To assemble the wraps, warm the pita breads in the oven or microwave. Spread a generous amount of the mint yogurt sauce on each pita bread, then top with shredded lettuce, sliced cucumber, sliced tomato, and sliced red onion. Add 2-3 lamb kofta patties to each wrap, then fold the pita bread over to enclose the filling.
The Lamb Kofta Wraps with Mint Yogurt Sauce are a perfect combination of savory and tangy flavors. The juicy lamb kofta is perfectly complemented by the fresh vegetables and tangy mint yogurt sauce.
