Ingredients Needed
- 500g lamb fillet, thinly sliced
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/2 cup fresh mint, chopped
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: yogurt or tahini sauce for serving
Preparation Steps
Start by marinating the lamb slices with olive oil, cumin, salt, and pepper. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors. Meanwhile, prepare your herbs and thinly slice the red onion. Warm the tortillas slightly to make them more pliable.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the lamb slices for about 2-3 minutes on each side until nicely browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.
Assemble the wraps by placing a few slices of lamb on each tortilla. Top with chopped parsley, mint, and red onion. Add a drizzle of yogurt or tahini sauce if desired for extra creaminess and flavor.
Roll up the tortillas tightly, folding in the sides as you go. Slice in half diagonally and serve immediately for a warm, flavorful lunch that feels gourmet and satisfying.
Serving Suggestions
- Pair with a light Greek salad for a complete meal.
- Serve with lemon wedges for an added zest.
- Enjoy with a chilled glass of white wine or sparkling water.
