These pitas topped with our Jean Martin Eggplant Caviar and a fresh yogurt sauce make for a light, fragrant appetizer with Middle Eastern flair.
Preparation
- Dice the cucumber and finely chop the chives, mint, and cilantro. Toast a handful of sesame seeds.
- Combine everything with the Greek yogurt. Season with salt and pepper.
- Warm the pita breads in the oven for a few minutes, then fill them with 2 tablespoons of Eggplant Caviar and 2 tablespoons of the yogurt mixture.
- Serve as an appetizer with a salad.
Our tip
Always toast sesame seeds dry over low heat, keeping a close eye on them: they color very quickly and have much more flavor once toasted.
Variation
Add a few diced fresh tomatoes for extra freshness and color.
Pairings & suggestions
These pitas go well with a light, dry white wine or mint tea.
