Middle Eastern Turkey Dogs

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spray baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.


In a small bowl, mix together cumin, coriander, ginger, cinnamon, pepper, and salt. In a large bowl, crumble the ground turkey; slowly work in seasoning mixture with your hands, distributing seasoning as evenly as possible. Divide into 8 equal balls.

Pitta pockets


Finely chop a small onion, fry gently until soft, add lamb mince and fry gently until cooked...during the cooking add mild curry powder, about 2 tea spoons to start, a dash of tomato puree and garlic puree (can leave garlic if you don't like it) chilli flakes, and stir in a couple of tablespoons of natural yoghurt and if you have it a dash of mint sauce...keep tasting and adjusting to your own taste...


When fully cooked add garden peas (frozen) and continue cooking until peas done.


Warm some Pitta breads, cut Pitta breads in half, open to make a pocket and stuff with mixture...I usually put a bit of chopped cucumber and raw onion in as well,


Eat in a very sloppy manner, delicious...
