Method
step 1
Mixed all of the Tzatziki ingredients in a bowl and chill for at least an hour. The longer the better as this allows the flavours to fuse!step 2
Mix the diced lamb and the marinade ingredients together in a bowl and chill for at least an hour. As above, the longer the better.step 3
Divide the marinated lamb to create 8 skewers. These need grilling for 15 minutes on a medium heat. Turn the skewers occasionally to make sure they are evenly cooked.step 4
Cook the chorizo in a large frying pan for 10 minutes on a medium heat to allow the oil to escape. Drain around a ½ of this oil before adding the tomatoes, red and spring onion. Cook for a further 5 minutes. Finally, add the chip peas and heat through for a final 5 minutes.step 5
Heat the pitas in the microwave for 2 minutes on full heat while you are serving up.
