Method

  1. 1 Slice the lamb thinly and marinate it with minced garlic, red chili powder, and salt for 20 minutes.
  2. 2 Pan-fry the meat over high heat for 8 minutes until browned but still juicy.
  3. 3 Cook a thick tomato sauce with fresh tomatoes and bell peppers for 12 minutes until thickened.
  4. 4 Cut the pita bread into squares, arrange them at the bottom of the plate, then pour hot tomato sauce over them.
  5. 5 Arrange the meat on top, drizzle with melted, hot unsalted butter, and serve with smooth, creamy yogurt.

With an appliance

  • Air fryer 55 min

    Replace step 2: spray oil onto the lamb slices, run the steamer at 220 degrees for 6 minutes and flip at the 3rd minute; the edges sear faster, about 2 minutes, spread evenly and divide into batches.
