Ingredients

Pitas and filling

  • 2 packs Ella Stína Pítubrauð pita bread (8 pieces)
  • 2 packs Ella Stína Kjúllabitar or Kjúllakebab (280 g)
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  • 3 tomatoes, chopped
  • ½ cucumber, diced
  • 1 red onion, finely chopped

  1. Heat the oil in a pan over a medium heat. Fry the pieces or kebab for 5–6 minutes until crisp, seasoning with paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
  2. Chop the vegetables and set them out in bowls with the pita sauce.
  3. Warm the pita breads in a toaster or the oven for 2–3 minutes until soft and puffed.
