  1. PITA PARTY

    Preheat the oven to 220°C. Place the pita bread on a roasting tray and pop in the hot oven until heated through and softened, 1-3 minutes. Halve the heated pita.

  2. CRAZY CABBAGE

    Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the sliced cabbage until slightly softened, 3-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Season.

  3. PITA POCKETS

    In a bowl, combine the mince, ½ the sautéed cabbage, ½ the diced onion, the chopped parsley, the NOMU spice mix, the tahini, and seasoning. Divide into 2 portions and stuff each portion into the pita halves, gently pressing to flatten. Lightly brush the pita halves with olive oil. Place on a baking tray and bake in the hot oven until browned and cooked through, 8-12 minutes (flipping halfway).

  4. LET’S SALSA

    In a bowl, combine the diced tomato, the remaining diced onion (to taste), the remaining cabbage, the pomegranate gems, the juice of 1 lemon wedge, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.

  5. I GOTTA POCKET FULL OF SUNSHINE!

    Plate up the fragrant stuffed pita pockets. Side with the tzatziki and the fresh tomato-cabbage salad. Garnish with any remaining lemon wedges. Wow, Chef!
