Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Put the lemon slices on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment. Drizzle over 1 /2 tbsp oil and put in the oven on the highest shelf to roast for 15-20 mins, until the lemon has released its natural sugars and the peel has softened and begun to caramelise. Keep an eye on them - you may need to turn the tray so that they cook evenly.
- Meanwhile, mix together the remaining oil and za'atar in a bowl, then toss in the pitta and use your hands to coat in the spiced oil. Spread out on a baking tray and roast for 15-20 mins until crisp and golden.
- About 5 mins before the lemons are ready, wrap the bavette in a foil parcel and put in the oven alongside the pitta bread to warm through.
- Mix all the other salad ingredients together in a large bowl. Add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and season with black pepper and a little sea salt (the olives and feta will add salt so you shouldn't need much).
- Add the lemons, spiced pitta and warmed bavette. Mix everything together with your hands, then divide between plates or serve sharing-style on a large platter.
