Any good Shawarma recipes?
I saw these being served on TV, and they looked great! I'd be interested in any Döhner recipes as well.
thanks!

My wife, kids and I lived in the Middle East for 10 years and ate schwarmahs on a regular basis. This is the area's equivalent of the taco. Either chicken, or beef with pickled turnips, sometimes tomatoes, and tahina sauce wrapped in a pita bread.
The meat is stacked on a vertical spit and rotated in front of a gas broiler. The cooked meat is shaved off like a Greek gyro sandwich. Must be eaten on a warm summer's evening on the street while standing next to a giant chicken rotisserie. The combination of aromas is unforgettable. Shawarmahs are available at any good Middle Eastern restaurant. |

I am a vegetarian, but any good falafel eater knows the best Shawarma in NYC is at Mamouns on McDougall St. ..........

In another bowl, combine the spices, salt, garlic, onion, bay leaf, lemon juice, and vinegar, stir well, and pour it over the meat. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

Divide meat into pita bread sections, add tomatoes, pickled eggplant if using, chilies, and a tablespoon or more of yoghurt.
