Yöntemler

Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C). Slice the tops off two garlic heads, drizzle with olive oil and salt, wrap in foil, & roast for 45–60 mins until golden and soft. While the garlic roasts, prep the kefta.

Grate the onion, squeeze out all liquid with paper towel or cheesecloth (prevents watery kefta.) In a large bowl, combine beef, garlic, spices, parsley, cilantro (if using), and the grated onion. Mix with your hands for 2–3 minutes until sticky & well combined.

Spread onto the sheet pan in a 1/2-inch (1.25 cm) thick rectangle. With a knife, score into 1-inch strips (2.5 cm). Drizzle evenly with 4 tbsp olive oil. Bake for 12–15 minutes at 400°F, then broil 2–5 minutes until golden & crisp on top. Careful removing!

Toss onion, tomatoes, parsley, salt, pepper, sumac, & lemon juice in a bowl.

Squeeze roasted garlic cloves into a bowl, mash, mix with yogurt, lemon juice, tahini, water & spices. On lavash/pita: add sauce, kefta, & salad. Roll tight. Crisp the wrap in a lightly oiled skillet.
