Sumac Lamb ‘Pizza’ with Radish and Pomegranate Salsa is loosely based on lahmacun,
which is a thin, round bread topped with mince and herbs. This is a great
shortcut version using ready-made tortillas instead of bread. Load them up with
the salsa and herby yoghurt for a real feast.Time and servings
