Instructions

  1. Dice the onion by removing the outer skins and chop into small pieces. Place in a small bowl for later.

  2. If using fresh garlic, remove the outer skin and chop cloves into very small pieces. Add to bowl with the onion.

  3. Use a cheese grater to grate the cheese. Add to a separate bowl for later.

  4. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large frying pan. Wait until the oil sizzles a little then add the onion and garlic and cook for 3 minutes until onion turns soft and starts to colour. Add mince and paprika, breaking up meat lumps with a wooden spoon and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until browned. Add frozen spinach using wooden spoon to break up spinach while it thaws. Sprinkle pepper and cook for 5 minutes.

  5. Place flatbreads on the bench and spread beef mixture over half of each flatbread, pushing it to the edge. Sprinkle mince with grated cheese and a squeeze of lemon. Fold the other side of the flatbread over to cover the filling. Press down to stick.

  6. Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a frying pan. Wait until the oil sizzles a little then add the flatbread. Cook on each side for 2-3 minutes, pressing down with a wooden spoon until the cheese has melted and the bread browns a little. Flip over using a turner or wooden spoon to brown the other side. Repeat the process with the remaining flatbreads.

  7. Transfer to a chopping board and cut flatbread into 6-8 small pieces and serve with a squeeze of lemon.
