Put about 1 tbls oil, I used olive oil, in a 10" skillet, get it medium hot, and add potato, carrot, onion, garlic and hab(s), and let this cook slowly, until the onion and the sweet potato are soft...remove and keep warm, and then add the beef to the same pan...cook this until no longer pink, add the remaining ingredients, and about half a cup of water,mixed with a tbls of flour and simmer this for about 10 minutes, throw in the reserved veggies, mix well, and add the spices, the peas, and cover for a minute or two. Warm pitas, cut in half, and fill each half with a lettuce leaf, then spoon the mess into that! I served this with garlic mashed potatoes...this should serve four.Enjoy, Cheers, Doug in BC
