Greek Kofta Kebabs

Sauce - Mix the ingredients in a bowl and set aside to let the flavours meld while you make the kofta kebabs.

Kofta kebabs - Put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well with your hands until the spices are mixed through. Divide into 8, shape into 13cm/5" logs. Thread onto skewers then flatten slightly to about 1.25cm / 0.5" thick (Note 5).

Cook - Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large non stick pan over medium high heat. Cook half the koftas for 2 minutes on each side until golden, then about 30 seconds on each short edge (just for a bit of colour). Reduce the heat if they're browning too fast. Transfer to a serving plate, loosely cover with foil to keep warm. Cook the remaining koftas. (Scrape out loose burnt bits, if any. You shouldn't need extra oil.)

Serve and assemble! Pile the lettuce, tomato and onion on the plate and put the sauce in a bowl. To assemble, take a warm pita bread and smear some sauce down the middle. Top with lettuce and 1 or 2 koftas (removed from the skewers), tuck tomato down the side and sprinkle with onion. Fold and EAT!
