Homemade Doner Kebab

Ingredients

• 500 g lamb or beef mince
• 1 onion
• 1 tbsp yogurt
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tsp smoked paprika
• 2 tsp garlic powder
• 2 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• flatbread or pita
• chilli sauce
• garlic sauce
• lettuce
• red onion
• cucumber

Method

1. 1

   Prepare the meat base by peeling and grating the onion into a fine puree, then transferring it to a food processor or blender.

2. 2

   Incorporate the mince, yogurt, olive oil, and the full array of seasonings into the processor. Pulse or blend until the mixture is thoroughly emulsified and uniform.

3. 3

   Divide the seasoned meat mixture into two equal portions. Place one portion onto a sheet of baking paper, cover with a second sheet, and press down firmly. Use a rolling pin to flatten the meat into a thin, even layer.

4. 4

   Carefully peel away the top layer of baking paper and roll the meat tightly into a compact cylinder. Repeat this process for the second portion.

5. 5

   Arrange both meat rolls on a baking tray and roast in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes.

6. 6

   Once cooked through, remove the rolls from the oven, unwrap, and slice thinly. Serve immediately, tucked into warm flatbread with your choice of sauces and fresh salad components.
