For example, a roll made from pita bread with mushrooms and cheese in the oven. This dish is easy to make, and it turns out hearty and tasty. We offer you two options for preparing this snack. Each of them will find his lover and admirer.

Ingredients for the recipe for pita bread with mushrooms and cheese

To prepare this dish you will need:

• three sheets of thin lavash;
• 300 grams of hard cheese (can be replaced with smoked or processed cheese);
• 300 grams of mushrooms (fresh or canned);
• two onions;
• light mayonnaise;
• a bunch of your favorite greens.

Cooking stuffing

First you need to prepare mushrooms with onions. Finely chop the onion and fry in a frying pan greased with vegetable oil. As soon as it starts to brown, finely chopped champignons must be added to it. You need to stew mushrooms with onions undercovered with a lid over low heat for 15 minutes, remembering to stir regularly. S alt and pepper to your taste. While the finished frying cools down, take care of the next filling. To do this, take a fine grater and grate cheese on it. Mix cheese chips with mayonnaise.

Roll design

Take the first sheet of pita bread, spread it on the table and brush evenly with mayonnaise. Sprinkle the leaf with a dense layer of greens. Top with a second sheet of pita bread, press it tighter and cover it with fried mushrooms and onions. Lay the third sheet of pita bread on the mushroom layer and grease it with the cheese-mayonnaise mixture. Carefully roll the resulting three-layer "sandwich" into a tight roll and place on a greased baking sheet with the seam down. In an oven preheated to 180 degrees, pita bread with mushrooms and cheese will be ready in 15 minutes. You need to cut the appetizer immediately, while hot, with a thin sharp knife.

This dish can be served both hot and cold.

Ingredients for the second option

A more economical option than pita bread with mushrooms and cheese in the oven is a snack with eggs. For its preparation you will need:

• one sheet of thin lavash;
• a pair of chicken eggs;
• 200 grams canned champignons;
• 200 grams of processed sausage cheese;
• bunch of greenery;
• light mayonnaise.

Cooking method

Pita with mushrooms, eggs, cheese and greens is prepared very simply, without heatprocessing and baking. This option is suitable for those who have absolutely no time to cook.

Spread a sheet of pita bread and grease it with a thin layer of mayonnaise, then sprinkle with finely chopped herbs. Top with melted cheese, preferably chopped on a fine grater, and grease this layer with mayonnaise. The next layer is mushrooms. They need to be finely chopped and mixed with mayonnaise, then sprinkle with cheese. The final layer is eggs, cut into large cubes. Crumble them, then brush them with mayonnaise.

Now you need to roll the pita bread into a roll as tightly as possible. It is necessary to act carefully, but quickly, so that the cake does not have time to soften. The finished pita roll with mushrooms and melted cheese should be covered with cling film and sent to the refrigerator for 20 minutes. You need to cut it with a thin sharp knife into pieces. Their width should be at least two centimeters. This is necessary so that the filling is evenly distributed and does not fall out of portioned pieces.

Cooking secrets

1. In order for all layers to be evenly saturated with mayonnaise, mix each ingredient with it separately, and then apply the finished mixture on a pita leaf.
2. So that when cutting the pita bread does not move out of the filling, fix it with toothpicks: prick them in several places, and remove them after cutting.
3. In the oven, pita bread with mushrooms and cheese can "leak". To avoid this, limit the amount of mayonnaise and fix the edges of the roll with toothpicks dipped in water.
4. If you want a rollturned out to be low-calorie, replace the usual mayonnaise with lean. And for a richer taste, simply add a drop of soy sauce and a little of your favorite seasoning to the sauce.
5. Instead of champignons, you can take any other mushrooms, boil them and also fry with onions. It is advisable to grind wild mushrooms after cooking with a blender so that their consistency becomes softer and more uniform.

Don't be afraid to experiment! Indeed, from any set of products, if desired, you can cook a culinary masterpiece.
