500 g trim lamb loin
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon lemon juice
olive or canola oil spray
4 rounds Lebanese bread
100 g low-fat hummus
2 cups shredded lettuce
200 g tabouli (purchase from deli or see below)
130 g can corn kernels, drained

Place lamb, garlic, spices, honey and juice in a nonmetallic bowl, toss to coat lamb, then marinate 10 minutes. Spray a nonstick frying pan with oil and heat. Cook lamb in 2 batches over high heat until browned and tender. Remove from pan. Allow to stand for 5 minutes before slicing thinly. Place bread on a flat surface. Divide hummus between bread and spread evenly to cover the centre of the bread. Top with lettuce, tabouli, corn and tomato. Arrange lamb along centre, top with onion and roll up firmly to enclose. Place wrap in a heated sandwich press and cook for 3-5 minutes or until bread is crisp. Or, grill lightly on both sides. Cut in half and drizzle with chilli sauce. Serve with salad.
