Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the thin slices of beef and lamb until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the meat is cooking, slice the tomatoes, onions, and pickles. Shred the lettuce and set all vegetables aside.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Doner Ekmek

    Warm the pita or flatbread in a pan for a minute on each side. Spread mayonnaise and ketchup on the bread, then layer the cooked meat, followed by the shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, onions, and pickles.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Fold the bread over the filling and serve immediately with your choice of side.
