Spicy Lamb Burgers in Pitta breads

Pitta Bread

250g strong white flour
5g instant yeast
5g salt
140 ml lukewarm water
2 tbsp olive oil (optional)

1.听听听听听 In a large bowl add the flour along with the yeast at one side and the salt to the opposite side. Slowly start to add the water whilst mixing with your hand/wooden spoon until you have a soft, shaggy dough. Add the oil and mix in using your hands.

2.听听听听听 Knead for 5-10 minutes on a clean counter top by pressing the dough away from you and rolling it back. Rotate the dough and repeat. The more you do it the dough will become smoother and feel elastic. When ready roll into a ball, place into a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp towel or clingfilm and leave in a warm place to rise for 1-2 hours or until doubled in size.

3.听听听听听 Preheat you oven to its highest setting with a tray in it to heat up. Remove the risen dough and divide into 6 equal portions. Roll out each portion to a rough oval shape about 陆 cm thick. Throw 2-3 of the rolled out portions on top of the tray in the oven and close the door. Bake for 2-4 minutes until the bread has puffed up and is slightly brown.

4.听听听听听 Cool on a wire rack whilst you bake the remaining dough. The bread will deflate when cooling.

鈥淕uacolate鈥� Chilli Tarts

300g pecans
200g pitted dates
陆 tsp salt
4 ripe avocados
150g coconut oil (can use butter)
100g cocoa powder
200g honey/sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
generous pinch of salt

听

1.听听听听听 Soak the nuts in water for at least 6 hours or overnight. When ready drain the excess water and pat dry with kitchen paper. Place into a food processor with the dates and salt to create a sticky dough-like mass. Press into the tart tin and leave in the fridge until needed.

2.听听听听听 Place all other ingredients into a food processor, holding back 50g of the coconut oil or honey if you like it a little less sweet. Process until completely smooth - you may have to scrape down the sides of the processor once or twice. The mixture should be spreadable, but not runny and only just pourable. If it seems a little stiff add a little of the reserved coconut oil/honey until you get the desired consistency.
