  • 1 tbsp tomato paste

Instructions
 

  • In a food processor, add the pepper, onion, chilli and cloves and blitz until finely chopped. Tip into a sieve over a bowl and leave to drain as much liquid as possible, you might need to press the back of a spoon over the pepper mixture to push as much liquid through.
  • In a bowl add the lamb mince, pepper mixture and the rest of the topping ingredients and with your hands mix together until fully combined and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 200c.
  • Divide the topping on top of each flatbread, spread with the back of a spoon right up to the edges. Place on a baking tray place in the oven and bake in the oven for around 8-10mins.
  • When ready, squeeze over a little lemon juice before serving. If you like spice, why not sprinkle with a pinch of chilli flakes or chilli sauce drizzled over the top.
