Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F), convection. Very finely chop the 50 g of onion, 40 g of green bell pepper and 3 g of garlic. Grind the cumin.
Mix these vegetables with the 130 g of raw ground beef, the cumin, paprika, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Knead for 1 minute to get an even filling.
Open a 90 g pita bread into a pocket, or two small pitas totaling that weight. Spread all the filling inside, no more than 8 mm thick, right to the edges. Brush both sides of the bread with the 6 g of oil.
