SHAWARMA
“GOLDEN CRUNCH”
Ingredients:
  • thin rectangular lavash;
  • chicken breast (or skinless thighs);
  • crispy fried onions;
  • fresh cucumber;
  • tomato;
  • iceberg lettuce;
  • garlic sauce;
  • salt, black pepper;
  • fresh herbs.
Method:
  • Cut the chicken into strips and fry in oil until cooked through. Add the soy sauce and honey at the end, stir and remove from the heat.
  • For the sauce: mix yoghurt, crushed garlic, lemon juice and a pinch of salt.
  • Spread the sauce over the lavash, add the lettuce, chicken, sliced cucumber and tomato, then top with a generous handful of crispy onions.
  • Fold into a tight parcel and warm in a dry frying pan for 1–1.5 minutes on each side until lightly golden.
The result:
the caramel notes of the chicken and the crunch of the onions create contrast, while the light sauce
does not overpower the flavour.
