Ingredients
- 500g beef, thinly sliced
- 4 large flatbreads (or pita bread)
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 1 cucumber, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons shawarma spice mix
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons tahini sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Beef
In a bowl, combine the thinly sliced beef with olive oil, shawarma spice mix, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together and let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Step 2: Cook the Beef
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned and cooked through.
Step 3: Prepare the Vegetables
While the beef is cooking, slice the onion, tomato, and cucumber. Set them aside to be used as toppings for the shawarma roll.
Step 4: Warm the Flatbreads
Lightly heat the flatbreads or pita bread on a pan for about 1 minute on each side to soften them up, making them easier to roll.
Step 5: Assemble the Shawarma Roll
Once the beef is cooked, place a portion of the beef on each flatbread. Add the sliced vegetables and drizzle with tahini sauce for extra flavor.
Step 6: Roll and Serve
Carefully roll the flatbread around the fillings, securing the ends, and serve warm.
