 Luleh Kebab
When I lived in Tucson, AZ, our Armenian club raised money each year by serving Luleh Kebab in pita bread at the annual fall ethnic festival.

1/3 cup dry bread crumbs
1 med onion, chopped fine
1/3 cup chopped parsley

1/3 cup tomato sauce
1/3-1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
pinch Kamoon
