Preparation steps

1.
For the tzatziki, halve the cucumber, remove the seeds and grate. Add the garlic and mix in the yoghurt and quark. Season with salt and ground black pepper.
2.
Soften the bread roll in lukewarm water.
3.
Heat 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a pan. Gently fry the shallot until softened. Stir in the chili, parsley and mint and take the pan off the heat.
4.
Squeeze the water out of the bread roll. Mix the minced lamb with the mustard, shallot mix, egg and bread roll and season with salt and ground black pepper.
5.
Heat the oven to 200°C (180°C in a fan oven), 400°F, gas 6. Bake the pita breads for approx. 5 minutes.
6.
Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan. Form small balls with the mince mixture and fry them until brown all over. Reduce the heat and continue to cook the meatballs for a few minutes until they are cooked through.
7.
Remove the pita breads from the oven and allow to cool briefly. Spread them inside with tzatziki and fill with meatballs. Wrap in greaseproof paper and serve, garnished with mint sprigs.
