Ingredients

  • 1 onion, very finely sliced
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
  • 2 limes, juice only, or 4 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 2 tsp caster sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 5 1/2 oz Greek-style yoghurt
  • 1 garlic clove, finely grated
  • 1 heaped tbsp chopped fresh mint leaves
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 to 3 tomatoes, chopped (approximately 10 1/2 oz)
  • Large pinch of salt
  • 14 1/2 oz spiced tomato and garlic beef base (1 portion)
  • 2 to 3 soft flatbreads
  • Fresh coriander leaves, to serve

Method

  1. Mix the finely sliced onion with the turmeric, lime juice, caster sugar and a pinch of salt and leave the bowl to stand 15 to 20 minutes, until the onion softens and turns bright yellow.
  2. Stir the Greek-style yoghurt with the grated garlic, chopped mint and a pinch of salt into a cooling sauce and set it aside.
  3. Salt the chopped tomatoes in a colander and leave them to drain slightly so they do not water down the flatbreads.
  4. Reheat the beef base gently in a saucepan over medium-low heat for 4 to 5 minutes until piping hot, loosening it with a splash of water if necessary.
  5. Warm the flatbreads in a dry frying pan over low heat for 1 to 2 minutes per side until soft and pliable.
  6. Top each flatbread with hot beef, spoonfuls of the garlic and mint yoghurt, the drained tomatoes and a generous pile of pickled onions, then scatter coriander leaves over and serve.
