Inspired by the generously filled, folded flatbread in the photograph, this summer version turns chicken shawarma into a gloriously colourful handheld feast. Greenfields Lebanese Shawarma Seasoning gives the chicken its aromatic savoury warmth, while sumac-pickled cabbage, juicy mango and a cool mint-and-tahini sauce bring brightness to every bite.
Serve the foldovers whole for a relaxed garden lunch, or slice them into wedges and arrange them on a large platter for sharing. They are messy in exactly the right way: crisp at the edges, molten in the middle and bursting with fresh summer colour.
