Alexa Weibel's vegetarian mushroom shawarma pitas are a hit for dinner, requiring minimal shopping and simple ingredients. The little forgot item, pita, leads to an impromptu baking session, making the meal more enjoyable. With homemade pita and a turmeric yogurt sauce, the dish becomes family-style fun, tantalizing taste buds and inviting laughter. The joy in sharing food is captured in the experience of indulging in these wraps, which are not just tasty but also perfect for social gatherings, as you can't help but keep eating them.
I'm not sure what came over us, but we could not put those wraps down. By the end of our first helping, we looked like various iterations of the Joker, with the exuberantly amber sauce smeared from cheek to chin.
Pita, Tanya. You forgot to get the pita. Out came the flour and sugar and yeast, and I got to work on David Tanis's recipe for homemade pita.
The recipe requires very little shopping; I picked up a couple packs of portobellos and asked one guest to pick up a head of red cabbage, as my store was out.
Wraps are great for when you can't set down your food. And with a truly great wrap, you won't want to.
