👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Finely chop the onion, green bell pepper, red chili pepper, fresh parsley, and tomato.
2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with the chopped vegetables and the Hawawshi spice blend.
3. Season generously with salt and black pepper, then mix thoroughly by hand until well combined.
4. Carefully cut each pita bread open to create a pocket without tearing it completely.
5. Divide the meat mixture into equal portions and firmly stuff each pita pocket with one portion, spreading it evenly inside.
6. Brush the outside of each stuffed pita generously with olive oil.
7. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
8. Place the stuffed pitas on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the meat is cooked through.
9. Serve hot, optionally cut into wedges, with pickles or tahini sauce.
