Grilled pita pockets- Crisp and delicious cheesy pita pockets

Pita Pockets- 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  pockets /triangles with three types of pita bread available ,thin like a chapati, medium and thick like a pizza base .
All the pita sandwiches turn out good ,but  personally I like the thicker version best for making these pockets or triangles. Do try and enjoy these delicious pita pockets/triangles.
These pita sandwiches can be served as starter or breakfast. the filling can be adjusted as per your choice but capsicum, corn, olives with cheese taste delicious. You can grill them in a electric grill, sandwich maker or on a hot pan.
These pita snacks are grilled sliced and served with ketchup and hot sauce.
I regularly make so many different types of sandwiches and My favorite are-

    anjana u made this from that khaboos thing we get there

    well i was earlier in the gulf region so i know about khaboos

    one is lebanese bread we called that also khaboos which was thicker

    and the local khaboos was almost like romali roti type

    i used the lebanese one during that time to make pizza

    we get her garlic kulcha but i can also nt make pockets

    this looks delicious
