Useful tips
The calorie content of a dish directly depends on the selected products, so to reduce it, you can choose dietary mayonnaise and add fresh vegetables. And no matter how much you would like not to resort to advice on preparing a roll, you should still remember that:
- Any products must be finely chopped - the sheet of pita bread, which should be chosen thin for quick soaking, will not tear;
- For the dish, take a hard or semi-hard cheese - it will melt faster when served hot, but to “glue” several layers of pita bread, you should choose processed or cream cheese;
- There is no need to lay out a large number of cucumbers and tomatoes when filling - they will release juice, and the roll will burst and fall apart;
- There is no need to use mayonnaise for a real roll - it is better to quickly prepare sour cream sauce (buy Bechamel sauce), which will well permeate the dish with its aroma.
The roll can be stored in the refrigerator for a very short time, but the ingredients for it separately can be stored for much longer. All you have to do is lay them out and roll up the pita bread - a tasty and very satisfying dish will be ready in a matter of minutes.
Lavash roll with chicken and Korean carrots

We take:
- Armenian lavash – 3 sheets.
- Chicken fillet, boiled – 200 gr.
- Korean carrots - to taste (about 100-150 g).

- Mayonnaise, dill sprigs, pepper, salt.
Step by step recipe:
Boil any parts of the chicken in advance, cool slightly, and fillet it. Chop it into small cubes.
Unfold the pita bread and straighten it. Coat generously with mayonnaise. To ensure that the roll holds its shape well, I advise you to put more oni on the pita bread and also grease it with mayonnaise sauce. Then the filling is guaranteed not to fall out.
Grate one processed cheese. To ensure that the cheesecakes are easily grated and do not stick to the grater, I recommend freezing them first, placing them in the freezer for about a quarter of an hour. Distribute the cheese crumbs over the entire surface of the sheet. Help yourself with a knife, as if spreading the cheese mass.
Chop the dill and sprinkle cheese on top.
Cover the workpiece with the next sheet of thin pita bread. Press a little with your hands. Coat with mayonnaise again.
Lay out the chicken meat, distribute it evenly over the sheet, but leave a little space at the edges so that the meat does not fall out when eating. Salt this layer.
Rub the second cheese on top.
Drain excess marinade from Korean carrot salad. Cut long straws to make it easier to eat. Place the top layer on the roll.
Form a roll by tightly wrapping the pita bread with filling.
To allow the snack to freeze and harden, place the roll wrapped in cling film in the refrigerator for a couple of hours.
