Method

  • step 1

    Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan. Gently cook the onion for about 10 mins, until soft. Add all the spices and the garlic, stir to combine, then cook for 1 min more. Throw in the lamb and break up with a wooden spoon so it gets coated in the onion and spices. Cook until brown.

  • step 2

    Add the vegetable stock and tomato purée, then simmer for 15-20 mins. Take off the heat, allow to cool, then chill in the fridge. When the mince is cold, take out 3 sheets of the pastry, brush with some of the melted butter and put them on top of each other on a flat board. Cut out 12cm x 8cm circles with a pastry cutter. Line a greased 12-hole tart tray with the filo to make little cases.

  • step 3

    Divide the lamb mixture between the 12 cases then cook for 15 mins, until the pastry is crisp and golden. Serve warm with some natural yogurt and chopped coriander.

“Cut out 12cm x 8cm circles” had my wife and I both giggling for a while... Great recipe though.

We all loved these! I reduced the ground cinnamon by a half as we found it too overpowering and we had them with new potatoes and salad. Cooked them at 180 and that seemed fine. Yoghurt and coriander perfect with them.

Very good. I used a carton of chopped tomatoes instead of the stock and tomato puree, added a bit of chilli and served it as a meal with rice. Delicious.

Very tasty. Made the lamb ahead and stored in the fridge overnight. Yoghurt topping definitley adds something. I'd say 170 for a fan oven too avoid the pastry browing too quickly.
