Pita bread or khubz is flatbread made with all purpose flour or with wheat flour.This is the most common staple food in the Arab world

I tried making these filling and easy cheesy pita pockets /triangles with three types of pita bread available ,thin like a chapati,medium and thick like a pizza base ,all turn out good ,but  personally I like the thicker version best for making these pockets or triangles.
