Shawarma

November 19, 2009 • Hello. I am currently out of the country and unable to respond to comments and e-mails. Rest assured, however, that future posts have been scheduled so new recipes will go live almost everyday during my absence. I'll be back soon with lots of stories and photos. Ciao for now! ~ Connie

Ingredients :

12 8″ flour tortillas
300 g. of beef round
1-2 onions, coarsely chopped
3 tomatoes, coarsely chopped
lettuce leaves
3/4 c. of grated cheese
1 c. of yogurt or sour cream
2 tbsp. of butter or margarine
salt and pepper

Cooking procedure :

Trim the lettuce leaves, wash and drain. Arrange on a platter. Place the chopped onions, tomatoes and grated cheese in separate saucers or bowls.

Slice the beef thinly, about 1/8″ thick. Cut each slice into slivers, about 1/4″ x 1″ in size. Season with salt and pepper (you can also use your favorite marinade) and let stand for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, wrap the stack of flour tortillas in foil and warm in the oven.

Heat a heavy skillet. Melt the butter or margarine. Pan-fry the beef over high heat just until the meat is no longer pink. Transfer to a serving bowl and keep warm.

Remove the tortillas from the foil wrapping and transfer to a plate.

To assemble, Place some lettuce leaves at the middle. Add some slivers of pan-fried beef, chopped onions and tomatoes, and grated cheese. Smother with a tablespoonful or so of yogurt or sour cream. Roll up the tortilla, jellyroll style, and enjoy.

    I’m living here now in Switzerland and I miss the Pinoy-style shawarma. So what I do, I cut the beef(meat) thinly and marinate in barbeque sauce then bake or grill in the oven. And instead of yoghurt, I use French sauce with pressed garlic, sugar and pepper. You can add cheese in the palaman. Yummy, parang yung Shawarma dun sa LRT-Gil Puyat Station. Yummy!
