Pita bread roll with cream cheese and crab sticks - basic principles of preparation
Armenian pita bread is ideal for preparing snacks. You do not need to spend a lot of time on its preparation, and absolutely any ingredients that you have in the refrigerator can be used as a filling.
It can be prepared from vegetables, sausages, meat, etc. One of the most delicious options: cream cheese with crab sticks. An appetizer with such a filling is particularly tender and juicy.
To make the filling more spicy and piquant will help make garlic. How much to add it depends on your taste.
In addition to the two main ingredients, you can add sausages, vegetables, bacon, mushrooms, etc. to the filling.
The ingredients are crushed in small pieces, or rubbed on a fine grater. Prepared products are laid out in layers, each pouring with mayonnaise or sour cream, or mixed and laid out in one layer.
Then they form a roll, making it as tight as possible, and send it to the refrigerator for at least an hour so that it is saturated. The roll is cut into slices.
