Method
To make the meatballs, combine the lamb mince with the garlic, lemon zest, mint, honey, some sunflower oil, and a little seasoning. Shape into balls and put in the fridge to chill.
Thread the onion, meatballs, and halloumi cubes onto 4 wooden skewers.
Mix together the olive oil and lemon juice to create the marinade, then brush over the kebabs. Grill for 4-5 mins on each side until cooked through.
Take the Lebanese Style Flatbreads and spread a dollop of tzatziki over both.
Layer on lamb’s lettuce and tomatoes.
Place 2 kebab skewers on each flatbread.
Top with coriander and serve!

Key Ingredients
Deli Kitchen Lebanese Style Flatbreads: These are super soft and hand-stretched, making them the ideal flexible base for wrapping around chunky skewers.
Lamb Mince: Provides a rich, savory base. Swap for turkey mince for a lighter, leaner option.

Tzatziki: A cooling, yogurt-based sauce that ties the hot and cold elements together perfectly.
Serving Suggestions
Zesty Finish: Serve with extra lemon wedges to brighten the rich lamb flavors.
Spicy Kick: Add a drizzle of harissa or chili oil over the tzatziki for a bold bite.
Fresh Crunch: Pair with a side of pickled chillies or crunchy slaw for added texture.
Storage & Reheating
The lamb and halloumi are best enjoyed fresh from the grill while they are warm and tender. If you have leftovers, store the cooked skewers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat the meatballs and cheese in a hot pan for a few minutes before assembling your flatbread.
