About Arais
Arais is a popular Middle Eastern dish featuring pita bread stuffed with a flavorful blend of spiced ground meat, such as beef or lamb, sometimes mixed with onions, garlic, and parsley. The stuffed pita is grilled or baked, resulting in a crisp exterior and juicy, savory filling. Originating from Levantine cuisine, Arais offers a balance of protein-rich meat and carbohydrates from the pita, making it a satisfying choice for a meal or snack. While the dish provides essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and protein, it can be calorie-dense depending on the preparation and the fat content of the meat. Opting for lean meat and whole wheat pita can enhance its health benefits. Arais pairs well with fresh salads, yogurt dips, or tahini, making it an adaptable option for those seeking a flavorful yet filling dish.
