Very tasty and incredible simple snack! Of course, such envelopes can also become a complete meal, if you increase their quantity in your plate. You can take them with you to work, on a picnic, give them to children at school, or simply eat them with hot tea.
Cheese goes very harmoniously with herbs, so we decided to make these components the main ones in our appetizer. In addition to cheese, you can find mushrooms, minced meat, ham, potatoes and many other filling options that you might like.
General cooking principles
To prepare such a snack, it is important to cut the pita bread correctly - so that it is not too small or too large. In the first case, the filling will spill out, and in the second, there will be too much “dry” lavash.
If you think the filling is too dry, you can always add an extra ingredient to it. It could be mayonnaise, ketchup, sour cream or some more complex sauce. We recommend making your own mayonnaise if you decide to use it in the filling. It will be much tastier this way.

Today we’ll talk about a practical and easy-to-prepare snack. Lavash envelopes are gaining more and more popularity, because they are easy to make and can be filled with almost anything.
General principles for preparing lavash envelopes
To prepare this appetizer, use: great amount products. But let's start with the main ingredient - lavash. It must be fresh, free of foreign odors and mold. This product disappears quite quickly, so when purchasing, you need to carefully look at the manufacturing date. It is more convenient to prepare envelopes from lavash if the lavash itself is intact and has no holes.
How to wrap an envelope? There are many ways. Regular rectangular or square rolls are very convenient and practical. Perky triangles look great on the table. And the massive roll envelopes, full of multi-colored filling, look truly festive. So, choose the method that you like and feel free to start cooking.
Wrapped envelopes are usually subject to further heat treatment. This can be frying in oil, baking in the oven, simmering in the microwave or any other method. Best result give those lavash envelopes whose recipes contain cheese - under the influence high temperatures it melts.

Lavash does not burn or stick to the pan, and gives an appetizing crispy crust when baked. By and large, the envelopes can be sent to fry in their original form. And you can further refine their taste. Perhaps, let's dwell in more detail on how to fry pita bread with an envelope. It will be clearer with a photo.
So, let's start with the most popular method - frying in batter. For his let's take the preparations a couple of raw eggs, spices and salt. If desired, the batter can be diluted with cold milk. Under no circumstances should you beat the eggs, otherwise the foam will drain from the pita bread, leaving dry areas on its surface. Simply fluff it with a fork.
The method of baking envelopes in the oven under cheese cap. This method is especially good if the filling does not contain cheese. Any variety that melts well will do.
Gives excellent results breadcrumbs. They are used together with batter. First, the lavash envelopes are dipped in egg, then generously sprinkled with breading. By the way, instead of ordinary crackers, you can take semolina- then the surface will be uniform and neat, but just as crispy.
Filling for envelopes
This appetizer is truly universal, as many have already seen. And now the specifics - lavash envelopes (recipes with photos) with many of the most various fillings. Let's look at three very tasty recipes.
Cheese cheese, spinach, green onions, dill, garlic, a raw egg. This filling is perfect for making envelopes outdoors. Wrapped, they need to be placed on the grill grate and baked over coals. For the filling, not only feta cheese can be used, but also suluguni, feta, mozzarella, as well as any other type of soft cheese. sour cheese. If you don't have it, you can experiment even with homemade cottage cheese.
Ham, cheese for sandwiches. Lavash envelopes with this filling will be an excellent option for a snack.

If desired, you can also wrap a thin circle of tomato in the middle, placing it between the cheese and ham.
Nuance No. 1. Cut thin flatbread It is most convenient to use scissors.
Nuance No. 2. Do not open the pita bread long before preparing the recipe. It dries out and folds worse. You can refresh it to the desired elasticity by sprinkling it with some water from a spray bottle. Cover the squares or strips already cut for envelopes with a slightly damp napkin so that they do not dry out while working with the filling.
Nuance No. 3. To seal inside the envelopes, the flatbread can be greased with mayonnaise, soft cheese, and beaten egg. Those envelopes that are filled with shavings of hard cheese also hold up well. Just three on fine grater and sprinkle the filling on top before rolling.

What is the most pressing question for almost every housewife? That's right - what to cook for breakfast. I’m no exception either - scrambled eggs, omelettes, cheesecakes and pancakes - all of this, of course, is delicious, but it gets boring pretty quickly. But one of my friends told me great option– fried lavash envelopes (almost the same as lavash, only easier and faster to prepare).
Essentially, this is lavash in batter with a variety of fillings, at your discretion: starting from plain cheese and ending with red fish. My favorite option, which suits everyone - both husband and daughter - is with chicken and cheese. It turns out nourishing, tasty, and also beautiful. As a rule, I prepare the filling in the evening, then in the morning all I have to do is form and fry the lavash envelopes in a frying pan. It takes very little time, so for me it is a very convenient breakfast option for the whole family.
Ingredients:
For 1 serving:
- 2 sheets of pita bread;
- 100 g chicken fillet;
- 50 g hard cheese;
- 3-4 sprigs of parsley;
- 1 egg;
- salt, black pepper;
- vegetable oil for frying.
Preparation:
We will need 2 squares of thin (Armenian) lavash measuring approximately 30 by 30 cm. The size is relative - it all depends on how large the envelope you want to get in the end.
Let's start with the filling. Chicken fillet Boil until tender in salted water, cool and cut into small cubes. Three hard cheeses on a coarse grater. Chop the parsley quite finely.
Mix the filling ingredients and place in the center of the lavash sheet. There should be enough space left on all sides so that you can then wrap the pita bread in an envelope from which the filling will not fall out.
The wrapped envelopes look like this.
Break the egg into a deep plate, add salt, black pepper and lightly beat with a fork until smooth - this will be our batter.
We dip the lavash envelopes with chicken into the batter and turn them over - it is important for us that the surface of the lavash is covered with egg on all sides.
And fry the lavash envelope in a frying pan with vegetable oil on both sides until golden brown.
It turns out very tasty dish: both an omelette and lavash with filling – two in one. The tender center contrasts favorably with the crispy egg crust, so this breakfast is always eaten with great appetite.
These envelopes are especially good when hot, but even when cooled they remain tasty and beautiful.
