How to make it
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Setting the oven to 350°F prepares it for baking the arayes, ensuring they cook evenly and thoroughly.
Mix the meat mixture.
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with the grated onion, garlic, jalapeño, tomato paste, parsley, cilantro, olive oil, ice water, and spices until everything is fully mixed and slightly sticky.
Prepare the pitas.
Cut the pitas in half and gently open each pocket. Heating them in the microwave for a few seconds makes this step easier.
Fill the pitas.
Spread a thin layer of the meat mixture inside each pita half, then brush the outside generously with olive oil.
Cook the arayes in a pan.
Heat a pan over medium heat and place the arayes meat side down first. Cook for 1-2 minutes until charred, then flip and cook each pita side until golden and crispy.
Finish cooking in the oven.
Transfer the arayes to the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 155°F.
Prepare the garlic tahini yogurt sauce.
While the arayes are cooking, mix together all sauce ingredients until smooth.
Brush the arayes with garlic oil.
Once the arayes are hot out of the oven, brush them with olive oil mixed with minced garlic and parsley, then serve with the dipping sauce.
