Marinade

Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, plain yogurt, minced garlic, grated ginger, tandoori spice mix, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the lamb is thoroughly coated with the marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinate

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight for deeper flavor.

Cooking the Lamb

  1. 3

    Preheat Grill or Skillet

    Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. If using a grill, ensure it is well-oiled to prevent sticking.

  2. 4

    Cook the Lamb

    Remove the lamb from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off. Place the lamb on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the lamb is cooked through and has a nice char.

  3. 5

    Rest the Meat

    Once cooked, remove the lamb from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into strips.

Wrap Assembly

  1. 6

    Prepare Tortillas

    Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.

  2. 7

    Assemble Wraps

    On each tortilla, place a few lettuce leaves. Add a portion of the sliced lamb, followed by cucumber, tomato, red onion, and chopped cilantro.

  3. 8

    Add Sauce

    Drizzle with mint yogurt sauce, if using.

  4. 9

    Wrap and Serve

    Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll it up tightly from the bottom. Serve immediately, or wrap in foil to keep warm.
