Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground meat, grated onion, garlic, cumin, paprika, coriander, chili flakes, salt, pepper, yogurt, and olive oil.
Mix thoroughly with hands until the mixture becomes sticky and fully combined.
Shape the meat into a log about 2 inches thick and wrap tightly in parchment or foil. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the meat log on a baking sheet and bake for 35–40 minutes until fully cooked and browned.
Remove from oven and let rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing thinly.
Warm pita or flatbreads. Fill with sliced meat, cucumber, tomato, lettuce, red onion, and drizzle with garlic or tahini sauce.
Roll up the wraps and serve immediately.

Notes

Can be made with ground chicken or turkey for a lighter version.

Try different sauces like tzatziki or harissa mayo for variety.

Serve as a rice or salad bowl for a low-carb option.

Leftover meat keeps in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheats well in a skillet.

Warm the pita before filling to prevent tearing and use parchment to keep wraps intact.
