Cooking
First of all, start with the minced meat. Add finely diced onions, spices, and salt to the ground meat. To keep the minced meat soft and juicy, pour a little cold water into the bowl. You can add dry herbs or finely chopped fresh herbs. Mix everything thoroughly and set aside for now.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg into a homogeneous mixture (fork or whisk). Take a silicone culinary brush and on each square of pita bread along the edge of two adjacent sides, draw a thin line with an egg. Then spoon the minced meat onto half of the pita bread, filling the resulting triangle from the central diagonal to the brushed edges. Fold the sheet in half diagonally and press along the edges with your fingers so that the dough sticks together using the egg.
It turns out to be a cheburek, which all you have to do is fry it in a frying pan. Lavash with minced meat is cooked quickly, until golden brown. Such pies or pasties with meat can be eaten either hot or chilled. It’s good to take them with you to nature or to the country.

To do this, finely chop two medium-sized onions into cubes and fry in a frying pan until golden brown.

Let the excess liquid drain and place the pie in the heated vegetable oil in a frying pan. Fry the pita bread with minced meat on both sides. It turns out to be a very satisfying dish. It would be nice to make the minced meat in advance, and in the morning, for breakfast, fry fresh pies for the family. Preparation will take no more than 10 minutes.
Lavash pies with minced meat - basic cooking principles
Everyone likes baked goods with minced meat. Chebureks, belyashi, samsa - pies that everyone loves. However, their preparation requires a lot of time and effort. You need to knead the dough, prepare the filling and form the pies. Yeast dough also requires time to proof.
When you really want meat pies, but don’t have the desire or time to tinker with the dough for a long time, thin Armenian lavash comes to the rescue. You can quickly and easily make rolls, snacks and, of course, pies from it.
The filling is best made from ground beef or chicken. You can buy it ready-made. But to be sure of the quality of the product, prepare the minced meat yourself from fresh meat.
The minced meat can be used raw, or fry it in a frying pan until cooked. Onions, herbs or spices are added to the filling. Salt everything and mix well. You can experiment by adding certain ingredients to the filling. This could be cheese, vegetables, mushrooms, etc.
A sheet of Armenian lavash is cut into small squares. Place the filling on each and form triangles or rectangles.
The pies are fried in a frying pan or baked in the oven.
Big Pie
According to the following recipe, separately prepared minced meat is placed on one sheet of pita bread and covered with a second one. The dish really resembles a pie, only very thin. Here you don’t have to wrap the sheets; you just need to secure the edges together, lifting them above the bottom.
Let's look at what products you will need for such a dish:
- 2 sheets of pita bread;
- minced meat or chicken - 100-150 grams;
- 1 tbsp. l. mayonnaise;
- 1 chicken egg;
- a couple of sprigs of greenery;

Lazy belyashi without meat with onions
Lazy belyashi without meat with onions (also called “fake belyashi”) are, in fact, a version of fried pancakes that taste like belyashi, but are prepared much easier and faster. The appropriate meaty taste for lazy whites is given by seasoning like “Mivina” with the taste of meat (I cooked with “10 vegetables” seasoning) and a large amount of onions. Belyashi turns out very tasty and fluffy, you can serve them with any sauce you like - tomato, sour cream, mayonnaise, etc., or you can eat it just like that.
Ingredients
To prepare lazy meatless whites with onions you will need: warm water - 500 ml; dry yeast - 1 tbsp. l. (with a slide); seasoning "Mivina" meat or "10 vegetables", etc. - 1 tbsp. l. (with a slide); premium flour - 400-430 g; onion (medium) - 3-4 pcs.; ground black pepper - 0.5 tsp; vegetable oil for frying pancakes.
Cooking steps
- Add dry yeast and seasoning to warm water.
- Add flour.
- Stir, kneading with a spoon into a fairly thick dough (a little thicker than for regular pancakes). There is no need to add salt to the dough, since the seasoning is salty.
- Finely chop the peeled onion and add to the dough.
- Mix the dough thoroughly and pepper.
- Mix the dough again, cover with film and leave in a warm place for 1 hour, it should double in size.
- In a frying pan well heated with vegetable oil, spoon out the dough in the form of pancakes. Fry the lazy whites over medium heat until golden brown on one side, then turn over to the other side, cover the pan with a lid and cook until golden brown.
- Very tasty belyashi, cooked with onions without adding meat, is best served hot or warm with your favorite sauce.
Bon appetit!
How to cook a pie
In a separate container, mix the minced meat, mayonnaise, spices, salt, finely chopped herbs and beat in the egg. Mix everything thoroughly and set aside for now. Handle the pita sheets. You need to trim off the excess by tracing the contours of the pan and leaving a few centimeters for the hem so that the minced meat does not fall out when turning it over. Pour a little vegetable oil into a frying pan and heat it up.
Hold one sheet of pita bread under running water until it softens slightly and place it in the frying pan. Apply a layer of ketchup or sauce with a brush and place the minced meat on top. Do the same procedure with the second sheet and cover the top of the pie with it. Reduce heat and fry for a couple of minutes, then carefully turn it over to the other side with a spatula and fry as well. To serve, cool the cake slightly and cut according to the type of cake: from the center point in sectors to the outer edge. It is best eaten warm.
