Instructions
- Mise En Place
Gather all ingredients, measure the salt, pepper, sumac, and olive oil, and set out a grill pan, knife, board, tongs, bowl, and spoon. · 3 min
What to look for: All ingredients are measured and tools are within reach.
- Season Kofta
Brush the grilled lamb kofta with olive oil, then season with salt, black pepper, and sumac so the surface is lightly coated. · 2 min
What to look for: The kofta look glossy with an even speckling of spice.
- Char Kofta
Heat a grill pan to 204°C / 400°F, add the kofta, and grill until marked, hot, and 71°C / 160°F at the center. · 6 min
When it is done: Check the center of the kofta reaches 71°C / 160°F.
- Warm Flatbread
Warm the flatbread on the same pan until pliable and spotted with light char, turning once so it rolls without cracking. · 2 min
What to look for: The flatbread bends easily and shows small toasted spots.
- Slice Vegetables
Slice the tomato and onion thinly, then toss the onion with a pinch of sumac to soften its sharp edge. · 3 min
What to look for: The tomato is juicy and the onion is thin and lightly purple from sumac.
- Build Wraps
Spread tahini sauce over each warm flatbread, place kofta in the center, and add tomato and onion without overfilling. · 3 min
What to look for: Each flatbread has an even sauce layer and a neat filling line.
- Roll Then Serve
Roll each flatbread firmly around the kofta, seam side down, and serve while the bread is warm and the sauce is creamy. · 1 min
What to look for: The wraps hold their shape and the filling stays tucked inside.
