Ingredients

Pizza dough

1 1/2 cup self-raising flour

1/2 cup plain flour

1/2 teaspoon table salt

300 gram natural greek-style yoghurt

Moroccan lamb and pumpkin filling

1 tablespoon vegetable or olive oil

1 onion, finely chopped

2 teaspoon moroccan seasoning

250 gram lamb mince

1 small beef stock cube

400 gram pumpkin, finely chopped

2 tablespoon water

1/3 cup bought tabbouleh

100 gram feta, crumbled

cooking oil spray

1 cup tzatziki dip, to serve

Method

1.Make dough: combine flours and salt in a bowl. Make a well at centre. Add yoghurt; mix to form a soft dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured work surface; knead until smooth. Set aside.

2.Heat oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Add onion; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until soft. Add seasoning; cook and stir for 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add lamb; cook, stirring to break up lumps, for 5 minutes or until browned. Stir in crumbled stock cube; cook and stir for 1 minute or until combined. Cool.

3.Meanwhile, place pumpkin and water in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 4 minutes or until tender. Stand 1 minute. Mash until smooth. Cool.

4.Divide dough into 4 equal portions; roll each portion out to a 20cm round. For each pizza pocket, spoon one-quarter of the pumpkin over half of a dough portion, leaving a 2cm border.

5.Top with 1/4 of the lamb mixture, 1 tablespoon of tabbouleh and 1/4 of the feta. Fold dough over to enclose filling; press edges to seal. Spray with cooking oil.

6.Heat a char-grill plate over moderate heat. Cook pockets, in batches, for 2 minutes each side or until brown and cooked. Serve with tzatziki.
