[simplerecipes]

Hello and welcome to another Steemit post from @simplerecipes . Today I will be writing about a traditional Egyptian delicacy which is Egyptian Hawashi (Stuffed pita bread). Hawawshi is a well known street food in Egypt due to its quick preparation time and tasty delicious flavors. I hope you enjoy making this recipe to your friends and family as it is very easy to prepare ahead and cook at anytime.

Ingredients

•  6 pita bread 
• 1 1/2 pound of lean ground beef
• 1 onion small diced
• 1 tablespoon of ketchup , 2 tablespoon mustard
• 5 cloves garlic crushed
• 1/4 cup finely chopped red and green pepper bell pepper
• 1 hot pepper diced finely
• 1 tablespoon of each cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, paprika, and Cajun.
• 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley
• 1/4 cup of melted butter
• Parchment paper

Method

1.  Preheat oven to 400F



2. In a large bowl combine the all the ingredients together except parsley and butter. Mix well until all the ingredients have combined with the beef.



3. Cut the Pitas into halves and carefully open them and place the meat mixture evenly in each half of the pita. You can add more mixture depending on the size of pita that you use.
4. Brush the outside of the pita's with melted butter. Wrap each one with a piece of parchment paper
5.  Bake in the oven until the outside of the pita is crispy for about 20-25 minutes and the meat is thoroughly cooked.  Always serve hot!!

Notes:

You can use cooked breakfast sausage, blend it with all the ingredients in a food processor. Then place it in the pita bread. Then brush with butter and bake immediately without covering the bread with parchment paper.
