  • 400 g ground beef
  • 200 g pumpkin, peeled and diced
  • 150 g mushrooms, sliced
  • 4 large whole wheat tortillas
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 150 ml plain yogurt
  • 2 tbsp fresh mint, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • to taste Salt

  • for serving Lemon wedges optional

Equipment

  • Deep frying pan or pot
  • Chef's knife
  • Heatproof mixing bowl
  • Rubber spatula or wooden spoon

Method
 

  1. In a frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the ground beef to the pan and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, roughly 8-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Incorporate the diced pumpkin and sliced mushrooms into the pan, stirring well. Cook for an additional 10 minutes, or until the pumpkin is tender.
  4. While the filling is cooking, prepare the mint yogurt sauce by combining the yogurt, finely chopped mint, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl. Set aside.
  5. Once the filling is ready, remove it from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  6. Warm the tortillas in a dry frying pan over low heat for about 30 seconds on each side, just until pliable.
  7. Assemble the wrap by placing some of the filling in the center of each tortilla, drizzling with the mint yogurt sauce, and folding it up tightly.
  8. Serve the wraps cut in half with a simple side salad and lemon wedges for brightness.

Notes

This Mint Yogurt Beef Wrap is wonderfully versatile! If you don’t have pumpkin, feel free to try sweet potatoes or even zucchini for a similar texture. For added richness, toss in some feta cheese or swap the beef for ground turkey or chicken. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a microwave or skillet to maintain the wrap’s integrity. Enjoy your cooking adventure!
