  1. Combine the lamb, onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, herbs and spices in a bowl. Add the tomato purée, lemon juice and egg. Season generously with salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly with your hands. If the mixture does not bind together, add an extra beaten egg. Chill for at least 30 minutes.

  2. Next make the tabouleh. Bring the water to the boil in a saucepan. Stir in the bulgar wheat. Cook, covered, over very low heat for about 10 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed. Remove from the heat and leave for 10 minutes. Tip into a bowl, fluff with a fork and leave to cool.

  3. Stir in the tomatoes, spring onions, cucumber and parsley.

  4. Whisk the oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Stir into the tabouleh.

  5. Combine all the tzasiki ingredients in a serving bowl. Leave to chill in the fridge.

  6. Preheat the grill to medium-high.

  7. Take one-sixth of the lamb mixture, and press it round a wooden skewer to form a sausage about 5cm thick. Repeat with the remaining mixture to make five more sausages.

  8. Grill for 7-10 minutes, turning regularly, until cooked through.

  9. Serve with warm pitta breads, tabouleh and tzasiki.
