Preparation
Prepare & roast the arayes
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Crumble the patties.
- In a medium bowl, combine the crumbled patties, onions, ⅔ of the garlic, the spices (start with ¾ for a milder flavour) and S&P.
- Halve the pita and carefully open the pocket; fill with the patty mixture and spread evenly.
- Brush both sides of the arayes with oil and arrange on a lined sheet pan.
- Roast, flipping halfway, 8 to 10 min., until lightly browned and crisp.
Make the salad
- Meanwhile, quarter the cucumbers lengthwise; cut crosswise into ½ inch pieces.
- Medium-dice the tomato.
- Pick the mint leaves off the stems; roughly chop the leaves.
- In a second medium bowl, combine the cucumbers, tomato, mint, all but a splash of the lemon juice, a drizzle of oil and S&P.
Make the toum
- In a small bowl, combine the mayo, tahini, remaining garlic and lemon juice, 1 tbsp water (double for 4 portions) and S&P.
Plate your dish
- Divide the arayes and salad between your plates.
- Serve the toum on the side. Bon appétit!
