1 lb. lean ground beef
1/4 cup finely chopped onion

These sandwiches are a great way to use up leftover meat. I had some leftover chicken from a roast chicken dinner and it worked perfectly in these sandwiches.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sandwiches didn't look as good as the ones in the pictures. I think I might have overcooked the meat.

These sandwiches were a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just because I used a hot curry powder. I'll try them again with a milder curry powder next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sandwiches didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The meat was a little dry and the curry flavor was too strong.

I love the freshness of the vegetables in these sandwiches. The cucumber and tomato add a nice crunch and the cilantro gives them a pop of flavor.

I'm not a huge fan of curry, but these sandwiches were surprisingly good. The curry flavor was subtle and not overpowering.

The curry marinade really gives the meat a lot of flavor. I used chicken breasts, but I think this recipe would also work well with pork or lamb.

These grilled curried meat roll pita sandwiches were a hit at my last party! The combination of flavors was amazing and the pita bread was the perfect vessel for holding all the delicious fillings. I will definitely be making these again.
