AUTHENTIC TURKISH DONER KEBAB

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine flour, oregano, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl. Add ground lamb and thoroughly knead with the flour mixture until thoroughly mixed together, about 3 minutes.
• Shape the seasoned ground lamb and place into a loaf pan; set on top of a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven, turning the loaf halfway to ensure even browning, about 1 hour and 20 minutes.
• Wrap loaf in aluminum foil and let rest, about 10 minutes. Slice as thinly as possible to make the doner kebab pieces.

DONER KEBAB (TURKISH-STYLE KEBAB) WRAP

Steps:

• Mix tomato paste with 1 cup sour cream; 1/4 cup dressing; and 1-1/2 tsp. each garlic powder, coriander and cumin until blended. Pour over chicken in shallow dish; turn to evenly coat both sides of each thigh with sour cream mixture. Refrigerate 3 hours to marinate.
• Heat oven to 400°F. Cover rimmed baking sheet with foil; spray with cooking spray. Place 2 large skewers, parallel to each other and 1-1/2 inches apart, on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with 2 additional skewers.
• Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade. Fold chicken thighs in half, then thread evenly onto skewers, tightly threading half the thighs onto each set of parallel skewers.
• Drizzle with 2 Tbsp. of the remaining dressing.
• Bake 30 to 35 min. or until chicken is done (165°F). Remove chicken from oven. Heat broiler.
• Broil chicken, 4 inches from heat, 5 min. on each side or until golden brown on both sides. Meanwhile, mix remaining sour cream, dressing and seasonings until blended. Reserve for later use.
• Stand 1 kebab on work surface, then use sharp knife to cut chicken vertically, from top to bottom, into thin strips.
• Stack pita breads on microwaveable plate; cover with damp paper towel. Microwave on HIGH 30 sec.
• Spread pita breads with hummus; top with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese and chicken. Drizzle with reserved sour cream mixture; roll up.

HOMEMADE DONER KEBAB

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat the oven to 350 F.
• In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, egg, garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
• Place the mixture into an oiled 9 x 5-inch loaf pan and cook in the oven for approximately 30 minutes or until the top is a light golden brown.
• You can slice the loaf immediately if you like but, for best results, cool completely, wrap in aluminum foil, and refrigerate until firm.
• To reheat, add a little olive oil to a large skillet, slice the loaf very thinly and crisp up the slices in the hot pan for a few minutes.
• Assemble the sandwiches with pita, warmed and toasted through. Spread on some tzatziki or tahini sauce, add lettuce, tomato, cucumber, onion, and top with more sauce.
• Serve and enjoy.

DONER KEBAB

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip all the ingredients except the oil into a food processor with a large pinch of salt and lots of ground pepper. Pulse until everything is combined and chopped together. You can also just squish everything together in a bowl but this will give you a looser finish.
• Oil a large sheet of foil, tip the meat mix in the middle and mould to a very thick sausage, roughly the shape of an aubergine. Roll up the foil tightly, twisting up the ends to create a Christmas cracker shape.
• Lay on a shallow roasting tin and roast in the oven for 35-40 mins, turning occasionally, or until a digital cooking thermometer reads 75C when pierced in the middle. Leave the kebab to cool a little, then unwrap the foil. Place back on the tray and brown under the grill or with a blowtorch.
• Place on a board and carve into thin slices. For full doner mode, you can hold the kebab up with a roasting fork or metal skewer and carve. Serve with warm pitta bread and any of the other accompaniments, including our chilli sauce and garlic yogurt sauce.

TURKISH KEBABS

Steps:

• Place the chopped onions in a large ceramic bowl and crush with the bottom of a glass until juice is rendered and onions look translucent. Stir in 2 crushed garlic cloves, 1/2 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, oregano, 1 teaspoon black pepper, turmeric, curry powder, and 1 teaspoon salt. Mix well; add the sliced beef and toss to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
• Combine the sour cream, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, dill, and 1 crushed clove of garlic. Mix well; cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
• Remove the meat from the marinade mixture, brushing off extra onions. Spread the slices on a baking sheet without overlapping, and salt to taste. Broil about 3 minutes per side or until browned and crispy, turning halfway through cooking.
• Divide the cooked meat between the pita breads, and drizzle with tzatziki sauce to serve.
