Recipe Notes

Surprisingly, the key to this dish is to prevent the pita bread from drying out both during and after cooking; it should not turn crispy.
Thanks to the moisture, the pita bread with the egg filling takes on a pleasantly elastic and slightly viscous texture, which I really enjoy. I could indulge in this dish every day.
Since the pita bread is soaked in pre-salted water before cooking, each piece becomes evenly seasoned.
If you prefer, instead of cutting circles to match the inner diameter of the pan, you can simply cut the pita bread sheets into equal-sized squares, eliminating any wastage.
As a last resort, pita bread fried in butter can be stored in the refrigerator until your next breakfast. However, it is best served immediately after cooking.
Enjoy your meal!
