Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the finely chopped red onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the ground cumin and paprika, cooking for an additional minute until aromatic.
- Add the lamb mince, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Continue to cook until browned, about 8-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove from heat and set aside.
- Place the pita breads on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Spread a thin layer of tomato puree evenly over each pita.
- Divide the lamb mixture evenly among the four pita breads, spreading it across the top.
- Sprinkle each flatbread with shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the edges of the pita are crispy.
- While the flatbreads are baking, combine the chopped parsley, spearmint, halved cherry tomatoes, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a bowl. Toss to mix well.
- Remove the flatbreads from the oven.
- Evenly distribute the parsley and mint mixture over the baked flatbreads.
- Top with crumbled feta cheese and toasted pine nuts.
- Cut the flatbreads into slices or quarters and serve immediately while hot.
Tips:
- For extra crispiness, briefly toast pita breads in the oven before adding toppings.
- If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount of paprika and cumin.
- Feel free to substitute lamb mince with beef or chicken mince based on your preference.
- Garnish with additional fresh parsley and a drizzle of olive oil before serving for an extra touch of freshness.
- Consider serving with a side of Greek yogurt or tzatziki for a delicious contrast in flavor.
