Knead the ground beef, grated onion, garlic, and spices until the filling becomes sticky.
Open the pitas in half and spread a thin layer of meat filling on the inner surfaces.
Close the pitas and brush the outsides lightly with olive oil.
Heat the pan over medium heat and cook the arayes for 10 minutes on both sides.
When both faces are browned, turn the edges for 2 minutes as well.
Serve hot with tahini sauce or salad before the inner steam softens the bread.
💡 Tip: Leaving the filling as a thin layer instead of stuffing the pita fully helps the meat cook evenly.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot with dairy-free tahini sauce or a salad.
