04 - Stir in cumin, coriander, cinnamon, paprika, cayenne, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
05 - Add tomato paste, mixing well, and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley.
06 - Divide the spiced lamb mixture evenly over the flatbreads.
07 - Bake flatbreads in the oven for 7-8 minutes, until edges are crisp and lamb is heated through.
08 - Remove from oven. Dollop Greek yogurt over the top, then sprinkle with pomegranate seeds, mint leaves, and pine nuts (if using). Drizzle lightly with extra virgin olive oil.
09 - Slice and serve warm.
