## Method

1. Slice flank steak 2mm thick against the grain and on the bias (at an angle).

3. Season with spices (ground coriander & cumin seeds) and sea salt flakes, mix well, separating the meat as you go, making sure all meat is well seasoned. Allow to sit for ½ an hour before threading meat onto skewers.
4. Fold the meat into ½ inch folds, stacking as you go and then threading onto 4 individual skewers
5. To make the whipped garlic and tahini, place all the ingredients into a blender and process till smooth.
6. To cook, place over a preheated griddle pan or chargrill, turning frequently for about 5-7 minutes depending on heat.
7. Glaze the skewers every couple of minutes with a mixture of the pomegranate molasses, chilli oil and cracked pepper.
8. Warm the pitta bread over a grill plate or in the oven. Open each pocket, fill with hummus, shredded cabbage, and the meat removed from the skewer, then top with zhoug, a little garlic tahini, and pickled jalapeños or Guindilla chilli. Serve immediately.
