SHAWARMA

Recipe By : Al Baab
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Main Course–Poultry Ethnic

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
2 pounds beef, lamb or chicken — very thinly sliced
Marinade:
1 cup yogurt
2 tablespoons lemon juice
4 cloves garlic — minced
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon onion — finely minced
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon red pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground mace
1/2 teaspoon salt

Combine all marinade ingredients. Add meat and marinate overnight.

Place the marinated meat in a barbeque cage and cook over hot coals for 15
minutes. Combine tahini (sesame paste), clove of garlic, lemon juice and
parsley until it is of a creamy texture, Add water if necessary. Place the
cooked meat, sliced tomatoes and onions in pita bread and pour on the tahini
mixture as desired.

OK, now here’s how I made them: I followed the instructions exactly until
cooking time. I used chicken (hubby doesn’t like lamb), drained it from the
marinade, spread the chicken out on my slotted broiler pan (so the juices
could drip down). Broil about 3 minutes, stir the chicken around a bit and
continue broiling until cooked through. I did not make the tahini
sauce–instead I used homemade buttermilk salad dressing. We used to eat at
this place in Dhahran called Babba Habbas, and buttermilk dressing came
closest to tasting like their sauce.

NOTES : The cone of meat, marinated in yogurt and seasoning, is layers upon
layers of meat (lamb, beef or chicken) place on a spit and topped off with an
onion and lemon. The spit is placed vertically in front of an open flame.
As the meat cooks it is turned. The shawarma chef takes his sharp knife in
hand and cuts off paper thin slices of cooked meat which drop into a waiting
tray below. The cooked meat, salad and yogurt or hot sauce are placed in the
pocket of pita bread or on a long toasted roll. Delicious!!!!!

Title: Iranian Relish
Categories: Sauces
Yield: 6 servings

Stephen Ceideburg
1 c Diced carrots
1/4 c Shredded and diced @cabbage
1/2 c Diced Japanese eggplant
2 c Peeled and diced cucumber
1 c Diced onions
1/4 c Diced garlic
1 c Diced red or green bell
-pepper
1 c Diced celery
1 c Mixed fresh herbs, minced *
2 tb Salt
4 To 6 cups red wine vinegar

* parsley, mint, tarragon, basil, chives

My friend Giti Hormozyari served me this refreshing mixture with a
slice of bread and a glass of iced tea on a hot, July day. I was
exhausted, ready to faint from the heat and this revived me
completely. Traditionally, it is served with meats but it is
wonderful straight out of jar with bread. The large quantity of mixed
herbs sets it apart from a usual relish.

Mix the vegetables, herbs and salt together, cover with the vinegar.

Refrigerate at least 25 days before using. If you omit eggplant, the
relish will ready in 3 or 4 days.

Makes 6 to 7 cups.
