Method
Combine the grated onion, garlic, olive oil, tomato paste, Aleppo pepper, black pepper and fine sea salt in a large bowl.
Add the lamb cubes to the marinade and turn to coat evenly.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
Thread the marinated lamb onto metal skewers, alternating with pieces of green pepper and cherry tomatoes.
Heat a griddle pan over high heat and cook the skewers for 8 minutes, turning every few minutes, for a pink centre.
Check with a meat thermometer that the thickest piece of lamb has reached an internal temperature of at least 63°C.
Transfer the skewers to a plate, cover loosely with foil and rest for 5 minutes; the temperature will continue to rise by a few degrees as it rests.
Warm the pitta bread in a dry frying pan for 1 minute on each side.
Serve the skewers with the warm pitta bread and flat-leaf parsley.
