Sumac is a deep red spice commonly used in Middle Eastern cooking. It has a bright, lemony flavour that adds sharpness and freshness without heat. It’s what gives the onions that slightly tangy, takeaway style flavour and helps to cut through the garlic sauce and cheese within the wrap.

If you don’t have sumac, you can substitute with:
• Extra lemon juice
• A small splash of red wine vinegar
• Or simply leave it out and have

The flavour will still be delicious however sumac just adds that authentic edge.
