Cooking tricks
Most often, lavash with feta cheese and herbs is served immediately after preparation. Of course, it’s incredibly difficult to resist such a snack! But you can serve it right away only if you have coated the base with some sauce and it has already become soft by the time you wrap it.
If there was no sauce, then everything will be dry and not as tasty as it could be. Therefore, it is recommended to wrap the roll in film and put it in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes. This time will be enough to soak thoroughly.
The greased roll must be served immediately, otherwise within a few minutes your appetizer will become soggy and turn into mush.
Hot rolls (from the grill, oven or frying pan) are also best served immediately. They will be crispy while warm, and then cool down and will be no different from the “raw” versions.
It will be very tasty if you serve some kind of sauce with the finished lavash. It can be tomato, cheese or based on cream, yogurt, sour cream. Imagine how delicious and aromatic it is if you add fresh cucumber, garlic, dill and a little salt to yogurt. Take a risk, you definitely won’t regret it!

Lavash rolls are becoming increasingly popular. And this is not at all surprising, since they are quite easy to prepare and, at the same time, are a wonderful snack for unexpected guests, a nutritious and tasty breakfast for the whole family, a wonderful decoration for any feast and addition to the summer picnic menu. In addition, today there are a huge number of recipes for making lavash rolls. And we offer another recipe for your collection - lavash roll with chicken, feta cheese, fresh cucumber and herbs.
Required Products:
- 400-500 g chicken fillet;
- 200 g cheese;
- 1 large fresh cucumber (2 small);
- 1 bunch of dill;
- 150 g mayonnaise;
- 1 laurel leaf;
- ground black pepper;
- 2-3 black peppercorns;
- salt;
- 230 g (2 sheets of 115 g each) Armenian lavash.
Cooking method:
1. First we need to prepare a delicate filling for our roll. To do this, rinse the chicken fillet well, put it in a small saucepan, add cold water (so that its level is several centimeters higher than the meat level) and, slowly heating until the water boils, cook for 30-35 minutes, skimming off the foam that appears on the surface with a slotted spoon. 10 minutes before it’s ready, add a bay leaf, black peppercorns and salt to the broth. 
2. Remove the finished meat from the broth and let it cool completely. 
3. Cut the chicken and cheese into large pieces and place in a blender bowl. 
4. Grind, but not to puree. 
5. Wash the cucumber, dry it and cut into thin strips (the thinner the better). 
6. Wash the dill, dry thoroughly and finely chop. 
7. Place chicken, cheese, dill and cucumber in a bowl. Pepper, add salt to taste and mix well. 
8. Divide the filling in half. Grease the lavash sheets with a thin layer of mayonnaise. 
9. Place the filling in an even layer on the lavash sheets, leaving 1.5-2 centimeters of free space around the edges. This is done so that when folding the pita bread, the minced meat does not “jump out” out. 
10. Form a roll: tightly roll the pita bread, giving it the shape of a log.

Ingredients:
- thin pita bread - 1 package;

How to cook cheese in lavash
You can fry pita bread in vegetable oil so that the rolls turn out with a crispy golden brown crust, or on a dry hot surface - this will dry out the snack.
- We wash the greens well and let them drain so that no excess water remains. If necessary, blot with a paper towel.
- Shred it and put it in a deep bowl.
- Grind the cheese with a fork or three on a grater - we need to get small pieces and a more or less homogeneous mass.
- Combine the cheese with herbs, add some salt if necessary, pass the garlic through a press, add black and allspice, mix everything.
- Unroll the pita bread on the table and apply an even layer of cheese mass over the entire surface, avoiding only the edges. We roll the roll so that the edges are wrapped inward and the filling does not spill out.
- Pour vegetable oil into a heated frying pan and fry the pita bread on both sides until golden brown, 3-4 minutes on each side.
Serve hot, dividing into portions.
If you want the appetizer to be immediately portioned, divide the unwrapped pita bread into squares and roll them into envelopes with the filling.
As you can see, there is nothing complicated in cooking feta cheese in pita bread in a frying pan. But if for some reason you can’t have fried food or you don’t want to watch the preparation, we’ll make lavash with cheese and herbs in the oven.
Achma: feta cheese in lavash in the oven
The dish is prepared in a large form, so there should be at least 1 large sheet of lavash weighing 200 g.
- Place two wide strips of pita bread crosswise on the bottom of the mold as the first layer, so that the ends hang down on both sides - this will take half a sheet.
- Prepare the mixture for pouring: combine 1 glass of kefir with 1 egg, add salt if the cheese is lightly salted and pepper.
- Tear the remaining pita bread into squares and dip it into the kefir mixture to soak.
- Grind or chop 250 g of cheese with a fork, combine with 1 bunch of chopped fresh herbs, mix and add garlic from the press or black pepper (or both).
- Pour 2-3 tbsp onto the bottom of the mold. egg mixture, spread some of the filling to cover the surface and cover with several pieces of pita bread. So, alternating, we repeat until the pita bread runs out - usually 3-4 layers are obtained.
- Cover the achma with long edges and add the egg-kefir mixture on top.
Place the pita bread with cheese and herbs in a preheated oven to bake at 190ºC for 30 minutes.
Serve the casserole, allowing it to cool slightly so that it is easy to cut.
Lavash with cheese: roll with tomatoes
Well, this recipe may not involve heat treatment at all. A roll with this filling will turn out incredibly tasty after being in the refrigerator and not on the stove.
- To prepare, we need to grind 250 g of feta cheese to a paste-like consistency. Grind it on a fine grater or grind it in a blender.
- We wash, dry and chop a bunch of any fresh greens, avoiding cutting the cuttings - they will be too rough in the filling. Combine everything, taste for salt and add spices to taste.
- If the mixture turns out to be dry, add kefir, sour cream or mayonnaise. The main thing is to do this gradually, literally 1 tablespoon at a time, so as not to overdo it.
- Wash 2 medium tomatoes and cut into thin slices.
- Spread a sheet of Armenian lavash on a flat surface and grease it with a mixture of cheese and herbs, applying it in an even layer.
- Place tomato slices on top of the filling.
- Carefully roll up the roll. If it turns out too long, cut it in half and wrap each one in cling film.
Place in the refrigerator for at least 30-40 minutes. After time has passed, we take it out and cut it into portions. On a plate we decorate the rolls with olives and fresh herbs.
Hot version of the recipe
Well, if someone wants to try hot pita bread with feta cheese and tomatoes, there’s nothing easier!
We just need to fry the resulting roll on both sides in a frying pan or bake it in the oven, first brushing the surface with egg - this way it will turn out rosy and crispy, but not greasy.
For lovers of lavash snacks, we also offer several recipes that do not require much time to prepare.
As you can see, friends, this incredibly simple and equally delicious dish leaves a huge scope for your imagination. When preparing lavash with feta cheese and herbs, you can always experiment by adding hard cheese, cottage cheese or mushrooms to the filling - the result will be tasty and quick.
We try to make it cold or hot and share our impressions in the comments!
First, let's prepare all the necessary ingredients.
Wash the tomatoes and cut them smaller. For rolls, slightly unripe ones are best. They have less juice. If there is a lot of juice when cutting, you will have to drain it, otherwise the pita bread will get soggy before baking and the filling will leak out in the oven.
Wash the pepper, peel and cut into small pieces.
Wash and chop the onion. I had it frozen, all I had to do was defrost it. Onions can be replaced with any greens or added to the roll.
It is better to choose cheese as a solid piece in a transparent package. It needs to be grated on a coarse grater. Mine turned out to be pasty. Honestly, I didn’t expect such a dirty trick from cheese for salad.
We begin to assemble the roll. Spread the pita bread on the table. I have homemade lavash, homemade.
Spread a thin layer of sour cream on the pita bread and sprinkle thickly with cheese. In my case, I just had to spread the cheese.
Sprinkle the pita bread with green onions.
Add tomatoes and sweet bell peppers.
We roll the pita bread into a roll.
Line a baking sheet with foil and grease it with vegetable oil. By the way, you can replace it with cream. It will be even tastier this way.
Place the rolls on a baking sheet. Lubricate them with oil on top to form a crispy golden crust.
Bake the rolls in a well-heated oven at 200 degrees for 10 minutes on one side, then turn them over and another 10 minutes on the other side.
That's all! Lavash rolls with cheese and tomatoes are ready.
Before serving, I cut the rolls into small squares. It's much more convenient to eat this way. You need to cut with a sharp knife so that the pita bread does not crumble too much. Bon appetit!
Good luck to everyone and new culinary discoveries!
