Method

  1. 1 Finely chop the onion, tomato, and parsley, then squeeze out the excess water to prevent the filling from becoming too wet.
  2. 2 Mix the ground beef with the chopped vegetables, baharat seasoning powder, and sumac powder until well combined.
  3. 3 Cut the pita bread in half, split open the bag, and spread the filling evenly across the inside.
  4. 4 Brush olive oil on both sides of the bread to make it crispy when baked.
  5. 5 Bake in a cast iron skillet or oven at 220°C for 12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the crust is crispy and the meat is cooked through.
  6. 6 Serve hot with a dipping sauce made of sesame seeds and lemon.

With an appliance

    For step 5: spray oil on both sides of the stuffed pita, run the hot air fryer at 235 degrees for 8 minutes and flip at the 4th minute; reduce to 4 minutes, but only layer each batch to ensure the filling cooks evenly.
