Instructions

1. 1

   Make the sauce and salad first so they're ready when the pita comes off the heat. Mix the yogurt sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Toss the tomato, cucumber, parsley and red onion with the lemon juice, sumac, salt and pepper.

2. 2

   Smash the beef onto one side of the pita, pressing it into a thin, even layer all the way to the edges.

3. 3

   Season the meat with salt, pepper and garlic herb seasoning, and spray it with olive oil.

4. 4

   Cook meat side down. Heat a large frying pan over medium high and lightly spray it. Lay the pita in meat side down and press firmly with a spatula. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, until the beef is browned and cooked through, 160°F if you check it.
