Arayes (Ares Bread) Recipe - 2

Instructions 1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, minced onion, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, and all the spices. Mix thoroughly with your hands or chopsticks until the meat becomes sticky. 2. Cut the pita bread in half (creating two semi-circular pockets) or make a slit in the side of the round bread. Stuff the prepared raw meat mixture into the bread, about 1 cm thick. Press it down firmly but don't overfill. 3. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Brush both outer sides of the pita bread evenly with olive oil or melted butter. Place the bread in the pan and cook over medium-low heat, gently pressing the surface with a spatula. Pan-fry for about 3 to 5 minutes per side, until the crust is golden brown and crispy, and the meat filling is fully cooked. 4. Remove from the pan, let it cool slightly, then cut into triangles. Enjoy warm with tahini sauce or yogurt sauce.
