Ingredients

For Aussie Lamb

  • 1 lb Aussie ground lamb
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion, peeled and finely diced
  • 2 tbsp Moroccan seasoning mix
  • 1 cup baby spinach leaves, washed and trimmed
  • ¼ cup pine nuts, toasted
  • 2 tbsp currants
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

For Flatbread

  • 1 large Turkish flatbread
  • 2 oz feta, crumbled
  • ½ cup fresh parsley leaves

To Serve

  • Tzatziki 

Method

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan, add the onion and cook, stirring until soft and light golden.

Add the ground lamb and cook until all the lamb has browned, stirring to break up any lumps. Add the Moroccan mix and cook until aromatic. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, approximately 2 minutes.

Remove from heat and stir in the pine nuts and currants. Season with salt and pepper.

Cut bread in half lengthwise, creating two large flat pieces of bread to use as a base. Place bread onto a baking sheet, top with lamb mixture and sprinkle with crumbled feta.

Bake in oven 15 minutes or until crisp and hot. Sprinkle parsley over the flatbread and serve with tzatziki.
