I found this recipe in the New York Times last year. I made them
this weekend.

My goodness, they are good!!! and simple to do.



Greek-Style Nachos


4 pita pockets, white or whole wheat, cut into wedges

About 1/2 cup olive oil

Salt

4 ounces feta cheese

1/2 cup yogurt, preferably whole-milk

1/2 cup chopped fresh mint

1 lemon

Freshly ground black pepper

1 medium onion, chopped

1/2 pound ground lamb

1 tablespoon ground cumin

2 or 3 medium ripe tomatoes, chopped

1 medium cucumber, peeled and seeded if necessary, and chopped

1/2 cup calamata olives, pitted and halved (optional).


1. Heat oven to 350 degrees Arrange pita wedges in one layer on baking
sheets and brush or drizzle with a tablespoon or two of olive oil.
Bake until they begin to color, turning once or twice, about 10
minutes. Sprinkle with salt, turn off oven and put chips back in to
keep warm.

2. In a blender or food processor, combine feta, yogurt, 1/4 cup olive
oil, mint and zest and juice of lemon; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Blend or process until smooth. (You can also mash mixture by hand,
with a fork.)

3. Put two tablespoons of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and
cook onions until soft, about 5 minutes. Add lamb and cumin and
sprinkle with salt and pepper; continue cooking until meat is cooked
through, about 5 to 10 minutes more. Put chips on a serving plate and
top with lamb, sauce, tomatoes, cucumbers and olives if you’re using
them.

Yield: 4 servings.



The pita 'chips' are really yummy with the lamb and the sauce. A
wonderful combination of flavors and textures.
