Instructions
1
Prep
Combine ground lamb, garlic, cumin, sumac, parsley, onion, salt and pepper in a bowl; mix by hand until evenly blended and sticky.
2
Shape
Mold the lamb mixture around a flat metal skewer into a long log about 1 inch thick, working quickly to keep the meat cold.
3
Chill
Rest the shaped skewer on a plate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes until the mixture firms up.
4
Grill
Brush grill grates with olive oil and grill the lamb skewer over high heat for 8 to 10 minutes, turning every 2 minutes, until deeply charred and cooked through.
5
Whisk
In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon juice and water until the mixture loosens into a smooth, pourable sauce.
6
Build
Slide the lamb off the skewer onto the warm flatbread, top with tomato, red onion and gherkin, then drizzle with tahini sauce.
7
Plate
Scatter the extra parsley over the top, fold the flatbread around the filling, and serve immediately while the lamb is hot.
