Share as an appetizer, but I'd eat for a meal :)
ingredients
12-16 pitas, cut into eights. I like making extra chips for snacking later
1 1/2 pounds ground lamb
1 Teaspoon cumin
Olive oil, for drizzling on chips
Salt for chips
Feta Sauce:
1 Container (17.6 ounces) Greek yogurt
1 to 1 1/2 Cups Feta Cheese
1 Lemon, juice and zest
3 Tablespoons fresh mint
2 Tablespoons olive oil
Toppings: (These are what I used, but go crazy)
1 red pepper, diced
1/4 Cup sun-dried tomatoes, diced
1/2 Cup feta, crumbled
1/4 Cup kalamata olives, diced
1/2 red onion, sliced
1 cucumber, peeled, seeded, and diced
2 jalapenos, de-seeded and diced
directions
For Sauce : Stick all your ingredients in a blender and give it a whirl. Be sure to get the zest off your lemon before you juice it.
Chips: Slice pitas into eight sections. Put your pitas on a baking sheet and drizzle them with some olive oil and a pinch of salt. Bake them at 400 degrees for about 30 minutes, stirring them once or twice while they are cooking. The chips may not become completely crisp, but they should be mostly crisp.
Cook the lamb as you would ground beef. You can also substitue beef if you're freh out of lamb.
Start with a good layer of chips, then add the lamb and a few spoonfuls of sauce. Keep layering with the sauce meat, and any additional toppings you would like.
