- 200 g Flatbread (falafel or pita)

Heat half the ghee in a pan over medium-high heat. Add finely diced onion and minced garlic, cook for 2 minutes. Add ground lamb and cook until browned and breaking apart, about 8-10 minutes. Season with cumin, black pepper, and salt.

Cut flatbread into large pieces. Heat remaining ghee in a skillet and fry bread pieces until golden and crispy on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish.

Spread a layer of yogurt on the fried bread pieces. Top with cooked meat mixture and its oil. Drizzle with additional ghee or yogurt if desired.
