Total time: 40 min
Yield: 4 serving(s)
Ingredients: 1/2 lb (225 g) lean ground beef; 1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil; 1 small onion, chopped; 1 garlic clove, chopped; 1 tbsp sweet paprika; 1/2 tsp ground allspice; 1 tomato, seeded and cut into chunks; 2 tbsp (30 ml) plain yogurt; 1 tbsp flat-leaf parsley, chopped, plus more for garnish; 1 tbsp mint, chopped, plus more for garnish; 4 Greek pitas or naan breads, about 8 inches (20 cm) in diameter

Preparation

With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown the meat in the oil, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Add the onion, garlic and spices. Continue cooking for 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
Transfer the mixture to a food processor. Add the tomato, yogurt and herbs. Pulse the mixture until just creamy (see note). Adjust the seasoning.
Place the pitas on the prepared sheet and spread each one with one-quarter of the meat mixture. Bake for 12 minutes or until the flatbread is light golden brown. Let cool, then garnish with more parsley and mint.
