Curried lamb tortillas
Chatelaine Triple Tested

The sauté pan does most of the work in this easy recipe, then it's all about assembly — starring a creamy yogurt base, fresh mint and bright citrus finish.

Ingredients

  • 1 small red onion, divided

  • 2 tsp olive oil

  • 1 tsp curry powder

  • 1/2 tsp cumin seeds

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 cup canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed

  • 350 g lean ground lamb

  • 1/3 cup mint, torn

  • 3/4 cup 0% Greek yogurt

  • 4 whole wheat tortillas, toasted

  • lemon wedges

Instructions

  • CUT one-quarter of onion into thin slices and reserve. Finely chop remaining onion.

  • HEAT oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high. Add chopped onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 4 min. Add curry, cumin and salt, stirring until fragrant, about 1 min. Add chickpeas and lamb and cook, stirring and breaking up with back of wooden spoon until meat is no longer pink, about 5 min. Remove from heat; stir in mint.

  • SPREAD yogurt over tortillas, then top with lamb mixture and reserved onions. Serve with lemon wedges.
