Arayes are crispy, golden pita pockets stuffed with a flavorful mixture of ground lamb or beef, onions, parsley, garlic, and Middle Eastern spices such as allspice, cinnamon, and black pepper. The stuffed pitas are grilled or pan-pressed until the bread is crisp and the meat is cooked through. Though Arayes are found across the Levant, the Palestinian version—especially common in Nazareth, Jerusalem, and Gaza—is known for its simplicity and charcoal-grilled flavor. Often served with yogurt, tahini, or pickles, Arayes are a popular street food and quick meal.
