Crispy Lebanese Meat Stuffed Pita - Arayes
Instructions
Prep:15minCook:15min
Recipe video above. Lebanese street food - pita bread stuffed with spiced kofta meat, pan fried until crispy! Think of these as Lebanese quesadillas or easy Gozleme. :) The unique method here is that it's cooked with raw meat inside, so the tasty meat juices soaks into and flavours the pita bread as it cooks. It's outrageously delicious. I bet you become as obsessed with these as I have!
