Za’atar Feta & Lamb Pizza

You may be familiar with the wonderful Turkish pizza style dish called Lahmucin. This is our version using Herbie’s kofta and falafel spice blend for the lamb, and marinating feta with za’atar for the topping. The marinated feta is also great added to salads and sandwiches. For a vegetarian option, simply make up our falafel recipe and press the mixture onto the bread base instead of the lamb, drizzling over a little extra olive oil before baking.
