PREPARATION STEPS
Lamb:
1Combine all ingredients for the yogurt marinade in a bowl. 2Make a few incisions in the lamb shoulder with a knife. 3Spread the yogurt marinade over the lamb shoulder, making sure it penetrates into the incisions. 4Leave the shoulder to marinate for a maximum of 8 hours (3 hours minimum). 5Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. 6Place the shoulder in a large baking dish. 7Roast for 1 hour per kilo. (2kg=2 hours). If the meat does not pull easily, leave it a little longer. 8Once the meat is cooked, let it rest for about 10 minutes.

Flatbread :
1In a large bowl, mix water and instant yeast. Let stand for about 5 minutes or until yeast is dissolved. 2Add the flour, salt, sugar, olive oil and mix with your hands until a smooth, even dough is obtained (this step can be done with a KitchenAid blender) 3Add a thin layer of olive oil to the bottom of the same bowl (previously cleaned). 4Put the dough back and cover it with a dishcloth or cellophane paper for one hour at room temperature. 5Carefully remove the dough from the bowl and place it on a work surface. 6Divide the dough into 4 equal parts and shape into balls. Cover the balls with a damp dishcloth and let them rest for 15 minutes. 7Heat a medium skillet to medium temperature. 8Place a parchment paper on the bottom of the pan and place a ball of dough in it. Cover with another parchment paper and flatten the ball with your hand until it forms a disc about 6 inches in diameter. 9Brown both sides of the pita bread. 10Repeat this step with the other 3 balls.
