    Warm the flatbread.

  5. 5

    Serve the köfte on the flatbread with the garlic yoghurt, dusted with sumac.

Use up the rest

Cooking this for one leaves 25 g parsley, 350 g beef mince and 400 g natural yoghurt. These recipes finish them off, so plan one later in the same week.

Good with the rest of your week
