Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make meat in pita bread? Prepare the necessary products according to the list. I used pork, but you can use any meat, such as chicken. But then the cooking time will be changed, since chicken cooks faster than pork. Rinse the meat, dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Step 2

Step 2
Cut the meat into slices and beat them well with a kitchen hammer on both sides. Season with salt and pepper depending on your taste preferences.

Step 3

Step 3
Now peel the onions and carrots. Rinse the onion with cold water, cut into small cubes or half rings as you like. Grate the carrots on a coarse grater.

Step 4

Step 4
Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. Add onions and carrots. Fry the vegetables over medium heat until soft, stirring occasionally to avoid burning.

Step 5

Grate the hard cheese on a coarse grater.

Step 6

Lightly grease a baking sheet with refined vegetable oil and cover with pita bread.

Step 7

Step 7
Place an even layer of carrots and onions.

Step 8

Step 8
Place the chopped meat on top (I got 5 medium-sized chops).

Step 9

Step 9
Then sprinkle everything with grated cheese.

Step 10

Step 10
Cover the meat with the second pita bread. Shake one chicken egg in a plate and brush the surface of the pita bread with it.

Step 11

Step 11
You can place tomato rings and fried mushrooms on top, but this is not necessary. Bake in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about 45 minutes. 10 minutes before the end of cooking, you can sprinkle the dish with grated cheese and chopped dill. Please note that since everyoneʼs oven is different, baking time may vary. How do you know when a dish is ready? If the meat is soft, can be easily pierced with a knife, and clear juice flows out of it, remove the pan from the oven.

Step 12

Step 12
It is better to serve the meat in pita bread immediately, before it has cooled down. But the next day, when heated in the microwave, this casserole will be delicious. Serve the dish with fresh or pickled vegetables.
