Ingredients

• 500 grams ground lamb
• 1 medium red bell pepper
• 3 large garlic cloves
• 1 medium onion
• 2 teaspoons cumin
• 2 teaspoons paprika
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 pieces flatbreads or lavash
• 1 large tomato
• 1 medium cucumber
• 0.5 bunch parsley
• 0.25 bunch mint leaves
• 200 grams plain yogurt
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon sumac

Directions

Step 1

Dice the red bell pepper and onion finely. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb with diced red bell pepper, minced garlic, diced onion, cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Mix the ingredients thoroughly using your hands until well combined. Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 4

While the meat is marinating, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing plain yogurt with lemon juice, olive oil, and half the sumac. Stir well and keep chilled.

Step 5

Dice the tomato and cucumber. Chop the parsley and mint leaves finely.

Step 6

Divide the meat mixture into four equal portions. Shape each portion onto skewers, flattening them into elongated sticks about 1-inch thick.

Step 7

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, grill the kebabs for about 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally until fully cooked and browned.

Step 8

Warm the flatbreads or lavash lightly on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side.

Step 9

Place a grilled kebab on each flatbread. Top with diced tomatoes, cucumber, parsley, and mint.

Step 10

Drizzle the prepared yogurt sauce over the fillings, sprinkle with remaining sumac, and wrap the flatbread tightly around the fillings.

Step 11

Serve the Adana Kebab Wraps immediately for the best taste and texture.
