MAKE MINCEMEAT OF THIS RECIPE
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the diced onion and fry for 2-3 minutes until soft and translucent, shifting occasionally. Add the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Caramelise for 3-4 minutes until browned, shifting occasionally. Season to taste.

STUFFED FULL OF DELICIOUSNESS
Stuff each pita pocket with some of the carrot slaw, the shredded Green Leaves, the Tomato rounds, the drained feta, the toasted almond slivers, and the mince. Drizzle over the harissa yoghurt. Serve any remaining filling on the side. Garnish with the remaining mint. Enjoy!
