Ingredients
- 140g courgettes grated
- 2 tsp cumin seed
- 50g Greek-style yogurt
- Zest and juice of 1 lemon
- 1/2 pack flat leaf parsley
- 1/2 sliced cucumber
- 500g pack turkey mince
- 4 pitta bread, lightly toasted and cut in half
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, crushed

Method
- In a bowl, combine the mince, garlic, cumin, lemon zest, courgettes, half the mint and parsley, and some seasoning. Using wet hands, divide the mixture into 8 and form into sausage shapes around the skewers. Chill for 20 mins.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the crème fraîche, yogurt, remaining mint, a squeeze of lemon juice, and some seasoning, then set aside. Toss the cucumber, carrots, tomatoes, remaining parsley and remaining lemon juice together in a bowl.
- Heat the grill and line the rack with foil. Toast the tortilla pieces for 3 mins on each side or until crisp. Brush the koftas with the oil and grill for 14-16 mins, turning until browned. Serve the koftas with the salad, minty dip and tortilla crisps.
