The story behind

I remember the first time I saw a vertical spit roasting meat in a tiny alleyway; the sizzle was hypnotic. I learned that 'shawarma' actually comes from a Turkish word meaning 'turning'. It's been around since the Ottoman Empire, and it’s honestly one of my favorite things to grab for a late-night dinner. It goes perfectly with a side of hummus and a cold glass of Ayran or just a crisp soda. It’s the kind of meal that hits the spot when you want something satisfying and full of flavor without too much fuss.

Ingredients

500 g beef steak (thinly sliced into strips)
2 pcs pita bread or large flatbread
1 tbsp shawarma spice mix (cumin, coriander, and allspice)
2 cups french fries (fried until crispy)
1 cup fresh lettuce and tomato (shredded)
2 tbsp garlic sauce or tahini (to keep it moist)

Instructions

1

Toss the beef strips with the spice mix and let them sit for a bit while you prep the rest.
2

Get your fries going in hot oil until they reach that perfect golden crunch.
3

Sear the beef in a very hot pan; you want it cooked through with those nice charred edges.
4

Warm up your bread, spread a generous amount of sauce, and layer the beef with the fresh veggies.
5

Roll it up tight and give the wrap a quick sear on the pan to get those grill marks and extra crunchiness.
