Directions
- 1Add your onion and parsley to a food processor or blender, and process till very finely chopped.
- 2Combine meat and remaining ingredients (apart from the bread) in a mixing bowl and mix thoroughly until well combined.
- 3For the pita, microwave the bread for 30 seconds and then slice into pockets or quarters. If using Lebanese bread there is no need to microwave.
- 4Use a knife to pry both sides of the bread apart till a pocket has formed.
- 5Add a few tablespoons of the meat filling to each pocket and massage to the edges of the bread. Aim to have the pita about 1cm (1/3in) thick, or 1/2cm (1/6in) thick for the Lebanese bread. Stuff the bread pieces till you have used up the meat mixture.
- 6Use a brush to oil both sides of the bread generously with olive oil.
- 7Preheat a grill pan on medium high heat and when ready add your arayes to the pan.
- 8Grill for 4 minutes (3 for Lebanese bread) and then flip once they start to sizzle.
- 9Cook for a further 4 (or 3) minutes and then remove from the pan.
- 10Prepare a simple chopped parsley and onion salad and serve the arayes.
