Beef Shawarma

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Beef

    In a bowl, combine yogurt, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Add the beef and coat it well. Cover and marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight in the refrigerator for best results.

  2. 2

    Cook the Beef

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the beef from the marinade and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your desired doneness. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Sandwich

    Take a pita or flatbread and layer with sliced beef, tahini sauce, pickles, onions, parsley, and tomatoes. Wrap it up tightly.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the beef shawarma sandwich warm with extra tahini sauce on the side if desired.
