300		g	lamb or beef from the spit at your local Lebanese takeaway
100		ml	tomato sauce

2		ml	chilli paste
5		ml	black pepper
75		g	yoghurt
125		ml	white rice
30		ml	fresh parsley

Boil water and add the rice. Chop the parsley. Place the meat on paper towels, microwave for a minute and press between the paper to remove excess fat. Place the yoghurt in a bowl and stir until it is runny.

Warm the tomato paste in a saucepan, and add the pesto, chilli and pepper. Add the meat and stir until hot. Place the rice on the plates, cover with the meat and sauce mixture and cover this with yoghurt. Garnish with parsley.
