LEBANESE MEAT-STUFFED PITAS (ARAYES)
Christina Perozzi from beerforchicks.com suggests the Deschutes Black Butte Porter from Bend, Oregon. It looks dark, but it has a light and bright body, nutty and smoky flavors, and a dry finish that will work perfectly with this snack.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a food processor, combine the onions, garlic, and parsley until finely minced. Remove to a large bowl and add in the beef, tomato, garam masala, pine nuts, and lemon juice. Season with salt. Mix with your hands until well combined.
- Arrange the pita quarters on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Fill each quarter with about 2 tablespoons of the meat mixture, flattening it out so the filling is even. Brush each quarter on both sides with a little olive oil. Sprinkle salt on top.

Steps:
- Place the veal and pork in a mixing bowl.
- Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan and add 3/4 cup chopped onion and paprika. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, about 3 minutes without browning. Let cool.
- Combine the ground meats, cooked onions, 1 cup of the bread crumbs, 1/2 cup of the chicken broth, the nutmeg, cumin, salt and pepper. Blend well with your hands.
- Divide the mixture into 8 portions of equal weight. Shape each portion into a ball. Flatten each into a patty and coat the patties with the remaining 1/2 cup bread crumbs.
- Heat the corn oil in a nonstick skillet large enough to hold the patties in one layer. Cook the patties until lightly browned on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook about 3 minutes on the second side or until done. Transfer the patties to a warm platter and keep them warm.
- Meanwhile, heat a smaller skillet and add the butter and the remaining 1/4 cup chopped onions. Cook, stirring, over medium heat until wilted. Add the vodka, vinegar, remaining 1/2 cup broth and bring to a boil. Add the sour cream and tomato paste. Cook about 2 minutes. Add the dill and lemon juice, blend well with a wire whisk and pour over the patties. Serve immediately.
