Number Of Ingredients 19

1 kg / 2 lb lamb or beef mince (ground meat) (, preferably 15% fat (Note 1))
200g / 7oz streaky bacon (, roughly diced (Note 2))
1 onion (, diced (brown, yellow, white))
2 clove garlic (, roughly chopped)
1 tbsp vegetable oil (or olive oil (for frying))
1 tsp dried oregano
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3 tsp salt (, kosher/cooking salt (Note 3))
1 tsp black pepper
8 flatbreads ((Lebanese bread authentic!))
1 iceberg lettuce (, finely shredded)
6 tomatoes (, halved and sliced)
2 red onions (, finely sliced)
Hummus
Yogurt sauce (, optional (recipe Note 8))
More Sauce options: chilli sauce/Sriracha (I use this), BBQ, sweet chilli, tomato sauce/ketchup
Extra options: tabbouleh, shredded cheese

Steps:

  • Mix beef or lamb with all the Spices - mix well using your hands.
  • Cover and refrigerate 2 hours minimum, or up to 24 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 170°C/ 325°F (150°C fan).
  • Line baking pan with foil.
  • Check to ensure skewers are long enough to prop on the sides of the pan. (Note 5)
  • Place onion, bacon and garlic in a 8 cup/2L+ food processor. Blitz until it becomes a paste (video at 29 sec),~30 sec on high, scraping down sides as you go.
  • Add meat and blitz on low until it becomes a paste (video at 42 sec), scraping down sides (~1 min for powerful food processors, 2 min for less powerful). (Note 4)
  • Turn meat out onto work surface. Wet hands with water, then shape into an even block 20cm/8" long.
  • Place 2 x 60cm / 2 feet long pieces of foil overlapping each other by 1/3. (Note 6)
  • Place meat on the end of the foil, then roll it up, tightly wrapping it in the foil.
  • Twist the ends firmly to form a log 25cm/10" long, then snip off excess foil. Roll into even log.
  • Thread skewers through the log.
  • Place log elevated in pan by propping skewers on the edge of the pan. (Note 7)
  • Cook for 1 1/2 hours, turning once after 1 hour, until the log reaches 70°C/160°F (up to 80°C/175°F is fine). The log is cooked at this point. (Note 9)
  • Remove foil from log but leave skewers in place.
  • Increase oven heat to 250°C/480°F, or as high as your oven can go if it can't reach this.
  • Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, rotating once, until browned all over.
  • Remove skewers then stand the meat upright.
  • Shave meat thinly - carve as much as you intend to use.
  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Cook shaved meat lightly coloured but still "floppy" (not crisped). Use immediately for Doner Kebabs!
  • Smear hummus on warmed flatbread. Top with lettuce, tomato, and onion.
  • Pile on Doner Kebab Meat. Drizzle with sauce(s) of choice.
  • Roll up tightly, wrap in foil if desired (to hold together). Grab and devour!

DONER KEBAB

Make your own version of this takeaway favourite, complete with chilli and garlic sauces. Serve your homemade doner kebab with pitta bread and shredded cabbage

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 10

500g lamb mince
1 small onion, coarsely grated
4 garlic cloves, minced or finely grated
100g fresh breadcrumbs
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp dried oregano
¼ tsp smoked paprika
sunflower oil for oiling
pitta breads, shredded red or white cabbage, sliced onion, chopped tomatoes, pickled chillies, chilli sauce (see recipe below), garlic sauce (see recipe below), tahini

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.
