Beef Doner Kebabs

Full credit to MezeMike for sharing his mum’s method for achieving proper takeaway style doner kebab meat at home. If you’ve seen this technique doing the rounds, it’s easy to see why it went viral. Instead of a rotisserie or dense loaf, the mince is rolled thin, layered, baked, sliced and crisped giving you that classic shaved doner texture, perfect for stuffing into warm pittas with garlic sauce and chilli.

Who needs a kebab shop when you can make it this good yourself! I used 5% mince this time and it wasn’t dry at all 👌🏻

Really tasty. A drained the oil to quick instead of resting it long enough so meat was a bit dry but still tasty.
