How to cook shawarma in a pita:

Instructions

1. For pita, knead the usual yeast dough. You can use milk, you can add eggs, but it’s not important. Roll the dough into a ball, cover with a towel, and leave for an hour. Next, roll out the dough into a flat cake, about 8 mm thick. We bake at the maximum temperature (I have 275 degrees). In a minute, the cake will begin to swell, thus we get a “pocket” for the filling. Cover the finished pita with a towel and let cool.
2. Now the filling. Pour the chicken breast with a mixture of soy sauce, honey, garlic, a mixture of five peppers. We bake for 15 minutes at 180 degrees in convection mode.
3. Rub the carrots on a Korean grater. Cut the eggplants into strips and deep-fry. Transfer to a paper towel, let cool completely, and mix with carrots. If not allowed to cool and mix hot, they will turn into “porridge”. Add salt, sugar, garlic through a press, vinegar, chopped parsley to the carrots with eggplant.
4. Mix feta with dill and cilantro. Fry sesame seeds in a dry frying pan and add to the cheese. Pour in 1 teaspoon. sesame oil and a little olive. Beat until smooth.
5. And prepare the sauce for greasing the pita. To do this, we use regular yogurt, add garlic to it through a press, freshly ground cumin and coriander, salt, and pepper.
6. Cut the pita in half. Lubricate the inside with sauce, put a leaf of lettuce, pieces of chicken, our green cheese, tomato, carrot and eggplant salad, cucumber.

Bon Appetit!
