Beef Shawarma Sauce Recipe

Preparation:

  1. Shawerma Seasoning:

In a deep pot, put ½ lemon juice, 1 tbsp. vinegar, ½ tsp. salt, ¼ tsp. pepper, ½ tsp. spice, ¼ tsp. soft cinnamon, pinch of chili powder. Put the meat slices in this mixture, mix well, cover with nylon, and keep in fridge. The more you keep it in the fridge the more it will be tasty the next day.

  1. Tahini Sauce:

It is made like regular tahini sauce, but this one is more liquid with no cumin. In a pot, put 2 tbsp. tahini and some water then stir with a spoon until it becomes thin liquid then add salt and pepper in addition to ½ lemon juice and garlic clove then stir well.

  1. Cooking Shawerma:
  • Put the oil in a large pan and when the oil becomes hot, put the Shawerma meat slices and stir slightly, so you will find the meat juice coming out from it.
  • Put the crescent shaped onion, bell pepper and then cover without adding water.
  • When the meat absorbs the water, stir it in oil until it becomes well cooked.
  • Put the cut tomato over the meat and stir for a short time that is about 30 seconds only because we don’t want it to be cooked. Turn heat off.
  • After putting the tomato, put the tahini sauce and stir, so you will have the meat absorbing it rapidly. Add the onion and parsley.
