Donair Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Donair

    Cook the beef donair meat in a skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Prepare Vegetables

    Dice the tomato and red onion. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Lay the pita bread flat and spread half of the Bassem's special sweet sauce on each piece. Evenly distribute the cooked donair meat, mozzarella cheese, diced tomato, and red onion on top.

  4. 4

    Press the Sandwich

    Drizzle olive oil on a pan and heat over medium heat. Place the assembled pita sandwiches in the pan and press down with a spatula. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from heat, slice in half, and serve with extra sweet sauce if desired.
