A good housewife is not the one who sticks out at the stove all day, but the one who has thousands of simple recipes for delicious dishes in stock. Feeding the family with a meal out of nothing is an art.

And here Armenian lavash is very useful - a thin flatbread made from wheat flour. She is tasteless and dry. Of course, you can use pita bread as an analogue of bread, eating soups and other dishes with it. But if you show culinary imagination, you can turn a cake not only into a sandwich, but also into a full-fledged dish.

Good housewives make puff pastry from pita bread, similar to lasagna, or Bulgarian banitsa, sweet strudel, tartlets, envelopes and even dumplings. A dry cake, saturated with the juices of the filling, seems to be transformed. If you bake such a shawarma in the oven with some kind of sauce or cheese cap, you get a full hearty meal. In this article you will find some of the best recipes for pita rolls with different fillings. Cooking them is extremely simple, and the result is insignificant.effort is simply amazing.

Cooking principles

Since lavash itself is neutral, the filling is the dominant taste in the roll. It can be different: sweet and s alty, meat, fish, cottage cheese, vegetable, mushroom. Everything that you are used to filling pies with, you can just as well make minced meat for rolls.

And you don't have to mess around with kneading dough. But you can not discount the quality of lavash. If you make cold sandwiches out of it, then choose not too baked products with a pale surface. Moreover, they must be fresh, otherwise the thin cake will break when folded.

But if we are considering recipes for baked pita roll, then the choice should be completely different. Our package will spend some time in the oven, where the high temperatures will release juices from the filling.

If the lavash is underbaked, they will leaven the dough, and the finished dish will look unflattering. We choose cakes ruddy, with black marks. Not quite fresh will do - in the oven they will find a second youth.

Hot sandwiches

Let's start our selection with the simplest recipes. This one will be possible even for a schoolboy if he is able to light the oven and build a sandwich. It will take a quarter of an hour for all the preparation.

A simple baked pita roll can be made with anything you find in the fridge - cheese, sausage, ham. Only one thing is important: these ingredients should be cut as small as possible - soit will be tastier, and the rolls will come out even and beautiful.

Hard cheese, which, according to the plan, should melt in the oven and stick around pieces of sausage, it is worth rubbing at all. When the filling is ready, we start making a sandwich.

1. Unfold the pita bread and grease its upper surface with a thin layer of ketchup. Then distribute the thinly sliced sausage. Preference should be given to semi-smoked varieties or salami. But with boiled sausage or ham, it also turns out delicious.
2. Spread grated cheese on top of this re-even layer.
3. Roll the pita bread into a roll and cut it obliquely into large pieces.
4. Lubricate the baking sheet with vegetable oil. Put the rolls in there. Sprinkle them with water and put in the oven for 10 minutes until the pita bread is reddened.

7. So that the edges of the baked pita roll do not diverge, you need to carefully turn the product over with the joint down. And pour the rest of the egg-kefir dressing on top. We also spread small pieces of butter on the surface.

Shawarma from suluguni

Delicious pita rolls are made with cheese filling. In this case, you can use both hard varieties and cottage cheese. This recipe invites you to make a roll of suluguni sour soft cheese.

If you don't like its characteristic taste, replace it with "pigtail". From 300 grams of cheese you get five large rolls. You will need:

• four tomatoes,
• egg,
• bunch of fresh herbs,
• two cloves of garlic,
• a little mayonnaise for greasing
• spice to your taste.

Suluguni or “pigtail” (we don’t unravel it) finely chop. Squeeze the garlic through a press, mix with mayonnaise. Lavash unroll.

Lubricate with a thin layer of sauce. Sprinkle with chopped herbs. Stepping back from the edge of a centimeter and a half, lay out the rings of tomatoes and a layer of suluguni. Sprinkle with spices.

Sweet bell pepper is freed from the stalk with seeds, washed and cut into small strips. We cut a bunch of green onions. Stuffing carefully knead. Add sour cream - about 100 grams, s alt and spices to taste.

Unwrap pita bread. Leaving a small space free from the edge, lay out the filling. We roll a tight roll. We pick the edges down so that the filling does not leak out.

Lubricate the surface of the roll with a beaten egg mixed with a tablespoon of sour cream. We put in the oven, preheated to 200 degrees. Cook until golden brown for 10-15 minutes.

Lazy meatballs

Don't feel like making dough and baking pancakes? Then let's prepare a quick analogue of meat pancakes - a baked pita roll with minced meat.

2. Pour a little vegetable oil into the pan and put a piece of butter. When the mixture is hot, fry the onion. Bring it to a golden hue, then add a pound of minced meat.
3. Meat can be anything. We fry until cooked, at the end we s alt and pepper the filling. Lubricate a sheet of pita bread with sour cream. We spread the minced meat.

8. Bake products for half an hour at 180 ° C. Before that, they need to be poured with a beaten egg mixed with a small amount of grated cheese.

Lazy twirl

Lavash rolls with different fillings differ in serving. Above, we described bundles in the form of shawarma or platters. And now we bring to your attention a snail pie. For him, cut the pita bread into long strips 7-10 centimeters thick.

The filling can be anything, even sweet. The main thing is that it should be of a uniform consistency, that is, the ingredients in it should be very finely chopped. We spread the filling in a thin strip on the pita ribbons.

Roll into thin bundles and spread on a round shape greased with vegetable oil (or a frying pan). We try to make the joint at the bottom.

Starting to create a "snail" from the outer edge of the form, gradually moving towards the middle. So that the junctions of the bundles are held together during baking, grease the vertuta with a beaten egg. We put in an oven preheated to 180 ° C and cook for a quarter of an hour.

Another type of serving: collapsible cake

This dish is not ashamed to be served as a hot snack and on the festive table. It looks like snail buns connectedtogether. How to make such a collapsible cake? Consider the example of a baked pita roll with cheese and cottage cheese. Let's prepare the stuffing first.

1. We will use 300 grams of hard cheese. Mix it with the same amount of granular cottage cheese, three raw eggs and a bunch of dill, which needs to be finely chopped.
2. Put the stuffing on a sheet of pita bread, leaving a small outer edge free. Let's make a tight roll.
3. Let's divide it into identical small parts, trying to make the cut even.
4. Line a round baking dish with foil. Roll pieces need to be cut.
5. We lay them out tightly so that the "snails" do not turn around. On each such bun you need to put a piece of butter.

Fry until cooked, not forgetting to s alt and season with spices. Next, we proceed, as in the case of a baked pita roll with sausage. Lubricate the cake with ketchup or mayonnaise. Lay out the mushrooms. We add fresh herbs to the filling. Roll up in the form of a shawarma.

The second way to serve is pizza calzone. In this case, fully cooked mushrooms should be passed through a meat grinder. We cover the oblong shape with a sheet of pita bread. Cut off the overhanging edges of the cake. We tear them into small pieces. Spread half of the minced mushroom.

Place the dough scraps on top. Lay out the rest of the filling. Beat the egg with a glass of kefir. Pour half of this mass into the middle of the pizza.

Cover the product with the second sheet of pita bread, wrapping the ends under the bottom. Pour out the remaining sauce. We make a few punctures with a knife to release steam. We put the form in an oven preheated to 190 degrees. Lavash roll baked in filling will be ready in 20 minutes.

Chicken and mushroom pie

As always, we start by preparing the filling. Finely chop two onions. Mushrooms (300 grams) clean and cut into small slices. Fry the onion in a mixture of oils. Take out on a saucer. Pour vegetable oil into the pan and fry the mushrooms. Mix them with onions. Separate the yolk from one egg.

Five eggs with one protein beat and fry four omelette pancakes. Chicken breast (400 grams of fillet without skin) is passed through a meat grinder. Lightly fry the minced meat, s alt it, season with spices.

Fish roll

If you have ready s alted salmon or some other representativesalmon, then just cut the slices into thin pieces. If not, the fish needs to be marinated. To do this, rub the fillet with s alt and spices, generously sprinkle with lemon juice and put in the refrigerator for a quarter of an hour.

Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. Mix a glass of sour cream, a coffee spoon of mustard, juice from half a lemon and 40 ml of vegetable oil. We cut the onion into a small cube. Cut two tomatoes into small pieces.

Spreading pita bread. We cut it into three parts. We put on each onion, fish and tomatoes on top of it. Brush generously with sauce. We roll three rolls. Line a baking sheet with foil. We put the rolls. Drizzle them with the remaining sauce.

Put in the oven, heated to 200 degrees. We cook like this for 20 minutes. During this time, three cheese (about one hundred grams). Sprinkle them with baked salmon rolls in pita bread. Cook for another 10 minutes until the formation of a ruddy cheese cap.

Sweet baked pita roll with cottage cheese

Farm cottage cheese (800 grams) knead with a fork so that there are no lumps left. We knead it with four tablespoons of regular sugar and a bag of vanilla. We drive in two eggs.

Spread lavash on the table. If necessary, sprinkle them with water to restore their elasticity. We spread the curd filling and roll tight rolls. We put them tightly to each other in a form greased with margarine.

A few last tips

To make the lavash roll baked in the oven look beautiful, it should be smeared with yolk or melted butter, to which a little honey or sugar should be added.

If you are afraid that the filling will fall apart, add a raw egg to it. When baked, it will hold all the ingredients together like cement.

The onion takes a long time to cook. If you do not want it to crunch on your teeth in the filling, fry it first until golden in a mixture of butter and vegetable oils.
