How to fill the bread?
- Using ready-made bread is generally the easiest way to make hawawshi. And you have a couple of different ways to cut and fill them.
- You can either cut them in half and put some filling in the half-circle piece. Or, you can cut a slight opening on the side of the whole bread and fill from there.
- Filling a whole bread round generally keeps the meat a little juicier while with the half-round, you get a slightly crisp meat edge on the side.
- Filling the half bread is a little easier but certainly, both are very doable. So it really just depends on what you prefer.
- Exactly how full you make them is also up to your taste.
Hawawshi is an easy and flavorful savory bite that only needs a few ingredients with delicious results.
