Friday, not a big desire for cooking and a lot of leftovers from the week… A perfect idea came to our minds. Let’s wrap some stuff in delicious Turkish pita breads. I do not like to buy plastic wrapped bread, so I tried to make it myself. I can say it is quite simple, but tastes a million times better than the ones you will find in stores. Besides all that, it is made with only four ingredients and it is very fresh.
We had some leftover meat in the fridge, tomatoes, chilies, mixed salad, cucumber, bell pepper, Crème Fraîche, onions, garlic, fresh spices etc. The decision was made. We will chop the meat in the very thin pieces and fry it shortly on the pan with sea salt and fresh herbs. With tomatoes and chilies we will create chili sauce and to calm it all down, but to have the wrap nice and juicy we top if off with a little Crème Fraîche.
Perfect, let’s get to work. The recipe for pita bread is coming in the next post.
