Preparation
Mix the ground beef with the finely chopped onion, bell pepper and chili, chopped parsley, cumin, salt and pepper.
Open each pita on the side to form a pocket, and fill generously with the mixture, packing it well so it reaches every corner.
Press the stuffed bread firmly to spread the meat in a thin, even layer to the edges.
Cook in a dry pan or a hot oven (220°C) for 8-10 minutes per side, until the bread is golden and crisp and the meat is cooked through.
Cut into pieces and serve immediately, hot and crispy.
