    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with the finely chopped onion, garlic, ground cumin, Hungarian Sweet Paprika, salt, pepper, and chopped parsley.

    2

    Shape the mixture into oblong kebabs. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    3

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the kebabs on all sides until golden brown and cooked through.

    4

    To prepare the yogurt sauce, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, chopped cilantro, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.

    5

    Cut the pita breads in half and gently open them to create pockets. Warm them in a dry skillet until slightly toasted.

    6

    Fill the pita pockets with the cooked kebabs, sliced tomatoes, cucumber, and a generous dollop of yogurt sauce.

    7

    Serve immediately, garnished with fresh cilantro.
