Instructions

Step 1

Place 2 baking trays in the oven and pre-heat to 240°C / 220°C fan-forced.

Step 2

For the spiced lamb: heat a large frying pan over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil, the lamb, garlic and spice mix. Cook 2-5 minutes, breaking up the lamb as it cooks, until well browned. Add the HEINZ Big Red and simmer 5-10 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, for the flatbread combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add the yoghurt and remaining tablespoon of oil. Mix with your hands then knead lightly until a smooth dough forms, adding a little extra flour if needed.

Step 4

Divide the dough in half. Lay each on a piece of baking paper. Dust a rolling pin with flour and roll out each piece of dough into oval shapes approximately 25 x 30cm. Carefully transfer to the warm baking trays. Top with lamb mince then bake 10-15 minutes.

Step 5

For the salad: combine all the ingredients. Set aside.

Step 6

Once baked, serve the pide topped with yoghurt, herbs and salad.
