(at time of publication)
Instructions
Step 1 Put Herby onion and butter bean mix* into a pan with cumin and heat gently for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Tip into a bowl and roughly mash together with lemon zest and juice, courgette and breadcrumbs. Dust hands with flour, then shape mixture into 8 patties. Press lightly to flatten.
Step 2 Heat half the oil in a large frying pan. Add patties and cook for 3-4 minutes until golden. Turn patties, add remaining oil, then cook for a further 3-4 minutes until heated through and golden.
Step 3 Meanwhile, put yoghurt into a bowl with parsley and cucumber. Mix well. Spoon into pitas. Top with patties, sliced tomato and salad leaves.

These are amazing! I used wholemeal pita breads. I chose tomato and rocket and doubled the amount of yoghurt. Also added heaps of herbs into the yoghurt with the cucumber :-) YUM these are a new regular
