Pulse until the herbs are chopped. Transfer to a bowl. Add the ground beef, salt, pepper, and pine nuts (if using) and mix thoroughly. Heat a little bit of vegetable oil in a large nonstick frying pan. With a large spoon, ladle in pancakes 3 inches wide and fry over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until deep golden. Be careful not to crowd the pan (work in batches). Remove to paper towels to drain. If desired, brush the pita with olive oil and toast in a hot pan or oven. Arrange the pancakes on the bread (it will absorb the flavorful juices) and top with red onion, herbs, tomato, and tahini spread. If not serving at once, store the pancakes in the refrigerator - they are delicious cold or at room temperature in a sandwich or as a light snack. FOR A VEGETARIAN VARIATION: Skip the meat. Increase the amount of matzo meal or bread crumbs to 5 tablespoons. You might also want to add 1 to 2 chopped and slowly sauteed onions for extra flavor.
