Method

  1. 1

    Finely grate the onion. Mix the pork mince, lamb mince, grated onion, chopped parsley and dried mint in a bowl. Season well.

  2. 2

    Shape the mixture into 8 short, fat sausages and chill for 10 minutes to firm up.

  3. 3

    Heat a griddle pan to medium-high, brush the sausages with the olive oil and cook for 12 to 14 minutes, turning often, until browned all over and cooked through with no pink remaining.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile, slice the tomatoes and warm the pitta breads on the griddle for a minute on each side.

  5. 5

    Serve the sausages in the warm pitta with the sliced tomatoes.
