Method

  1. Preheat the grill to high. Lightly grease a baking tray with oil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mix together the turkey mince, mint, courgette, chilli, 2 crushed garlic cloves, egg and parsley (saving a little to garnish) until evenly combined. Shape the mix into 16 sausage shaped koftas and place on the baking tray. Drizzle with oil and place under the grill for 10-12 mins, turning halfway through, until evenly golden and cooked throughout.

  4. In a separate bowl, mix together the cherry tomatoes, balsamic vinegar and season with pepper.
  5. Warm the flatbreads according to packet instructions. Top the warm flatbreads with the koftas, garlic yogurt, salad cheese, romaine lettuce, cucumber and a pinch of parsley. Serve with the tomato salad and a wedge of lemon.
