Lamb Kofta Wraps

I don’t often frequent the local Co-Op in the evening, but it’s probably worth sticking my head in a little more often. This Lamb mince was supposed to be £4.70 a pack, which I simply wouldn’t pay. But at £1.66 a pack it made the foundation for a real treat for us.

We had Cajun Potato wedges with ours, the remain salad mix and the Mayo dressing to dip. Who needs a take away in a cold damp archway on the way home?!
