Who doesn’t love the shawarma the juicy pita wrap of succulent meat with condiments and sauces.

How its made?

Shawarma is made of meat marinated in  cumin ,paprika ,allspice, turmeric, garlic powder cinnamon , salt and black pepper, cut into thin slices, stacked in a cone-like shape, and roasted on a slowly-turning vertical rotisserie or spit.  A pioneer when it comes to the middle eastern street food.
