Kebob Pita Pockets


So here goes.. my first post on my new food blog! We decided to have Indian Style Kebob Pita Pockets!  These are so delicious, I really hope you give them a try!

Ingredients:
1/2 Lbs. Ground Turkey Meat (or any other ground meat you like)
3 Teaspoon Garlic, Minced
1 Small Jalapeno, Minced (more for more  heat)
1 Teaspoon Fresh Ginger, Minced
3 Tablespoon Fresh Cilantro, Chopped
2 Teaspoon Ground Tumeric
4 Teaspoon Ground Coriander
2 Teaspoon Garam Masala
1/2 Teaspoon Tandoori Masala (optional)
1 Teaspoon Salt (more or less depending on your family's taste)
1/8 Cup Vegetable Oil
Lemon Juice
Shredded Lettuce
Chopped Tomatoes
Chopped Red Onions
Pita Bread Pockets
Spicy Sour Cream Sauce (Recipe is below)

Directions:
Mix everything except the oil together into the ground meat.  Let this mixture marinate for at least a few hours but if you can marinate overnight, the kebobs will taste even better.  Once the meat has marinated and you are ready to begin, heat the oil in a large frying pan.  Make bite size meatballs and add to the pan.  Allow the meatballs to brown on all sides and until cooked through.  Once cooked, remove from the pan and onto a paper towel lined dish and allow the extra oil to drain.


While the meatballs are draining, heat your pita pockets and make the spicy sour cream sauce.


Spicy Sour Cream Sauce:
1/2 Cup Sour Cream
2 Table Spoon Siracha Hot Sauce
Salt and Pepper to taste.

Mix all ingredients together and set aside.

Once your pita pockets are heated through, cut the top open and spread about 1 Tablespoon of sour cream sauce on the inside.  Add the meatballs and shredded lettuce, onions, and tomatoes.  Top with more sauce if you like! Enjoy...

And make sure to take the Thyme to Savor...
