Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground lamb
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 200 grams plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves, chopped
- 8 romaine lettuce leaves
- 150 grams cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cucumber, diced
- 0.5 red onion, thinly sliced
- 4 whole-grain tortilla wraps
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the ground lamb to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
Drain any excess fat from the skillet, then stir in the cumin, coriander, paprika, cinnamon, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes to toast the spices and coat the lamb.
Remove the skillet from heat and set the spiced lamb aside to cool slightly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and chopped fresh mint to create the dressing. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
Lay out the tortilla wraps on a clean surface. Place 2 romaine lettuce leaves down the center of each wrap.
Top the lettuce with an even portion of the spiced lamb, followed by the cherry tomato halves, diced cucumber, and thinly sliced red onion.
Drizzle the yogurt dressing over the fillings in each wrap.
Roll up each wrap tightly, tucking in the sides as you go, and slice in half if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Moroccan Lamb Salad Wraps!
