Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef (15% fat)
- 1 medium Grated onion (drained)
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
- 1
Place the ground beef in a food processor with the grated onion, garlic, yogurt, and all spices.
- 2
Pulse the mixture until it becomes a very smooth, tacky paste; this ensures the classic 'doner' texture.
- 3
Shape the meat mixture into a tight, uniform log and wrap it tightly in aluminum foil, twisting the ends like a candy wrapper.
- 4
Place the foil log in a baking dish and bake at 180°C (350°F) for about 45 to 50 minutes.
- 5
Remove from the oven and let the meat rest in the foil for at least 10 minutes to retain juices.
- 6
Unwrap the log and brown the outside in a hot pan with a little olive oil for extra crispness.
- 7
Using a very sharp knife or a vegetable peeler, shave off thin ribbons of meat from the log.
- 8
Serve the meat shavings inside warm pita bread with salad, tomatoes, and garlic sauce.
