   Then cut the onion and chop the parsley finely. Put half the chopped parsley in a bowl with the chopped onion and press a garlic clove. Now add the minced meat, the cheese and the baharat herbs and mix well together. Then press another garlic clove in another bowl to make the sauce, add the other half of the chopped parsley, yogurt, tahina and juice from a half lemon and stir well together. Then put the sauce in the cooler.

   Now cut the pitas in half and fill them with the minced mixture. It can help to wet the pitas and put them in the microwave for short 15-20 seconds, then they are slightly smoother and you can fill them more easily. Fill them to the edge and then flatten them.
