Authentic Turkish Shawarma
This typical Turkish street food is bursting with flavour and is served on a Pide (Turkish bread) with garlic sauce and sometimes also with tomato sauce.
Ingredients for the Shawarma:
800 grams of lamb
1 bunch of spring onions
1 red bell pepper
1 green bell pepper
Ingredients for the Shawarma spices:
2 teaspoons of cumin powder
2 teaspoons of freshly ground black pepper from the mill
2 teaspoons of paprika powder
2 teaspoons of garlic powder
2 teaspoons of ginger powder
2 teaspoons of coriander powder
1 teaspoon of freshly ground sea salt from the mill
1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder
1 teaspoon of turmeric
1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon of ground cloves
Preparation:
Step 1:
Cut the spring onions into rings. Cut the bell peppers into thin strips.
Step 2:
Put the cumin, black pepper, paprika powder, garlic powder, ginger powder, coriander, sea salt, cinnamon, turmeric, cloves and cayenne pepper in a bowl and mix well with a whisk.
Step 3:
Mix the Shawarma spices, spring onion and bell pepper well through the meat and leave it covered with cling film in the refrigerator for about 4 hours so that all the flavors of the spice mix can be absorbed by the meat.
Step 4:
Put the meat in a large wok without oil or butter and fry it in its own fat that is released.
Step 5:
Cut a Pide (Turkish bread) in half and toast it in a dry frying pan or cut a pita bread in half and heat it in a toaster. Then top it with raw endive, Shawarma, garlic sauce or tomato sauce, cucumber slices and tomato slices.
Serve it with Garlic Sauce, Tomato Sauce and Pickeld Jalapeno Peppers from the Sera brand.
NOTE:
You can also replace the lamb with pork.
