Grad Grub - Entry 4

Persian Pizza

• Whole wheat pita
• Mozzarella, grated
• Turkish Feta, crumbled
• Basil, thinly sliced
• Walnut halves
• Basterma, thinly sliced
• Ground Pepper
• Olive Oil

Assemble cheeses on pita. Add basil, walnuts and basterma. Sprinke with pepper. Drizzle with olive oil. Bake at 450 for 6-8 minutes.

Basterma is a spiced middle eastern beef introduced to me by my friend Noeha. I can't think of anything else that is similar, the spices are uniquely middle eastern. It can be omitted and it will still taste great!

For Dallasites: You can find Basterma at Shines Deli, SE Corner of Preston & Beltline, in front of Stein Mart.

For Laurel: See, another Laurel-friendly concoction brought to you by yours truly :)
