Step 3: Cooking the Shawarma

1. Preheat your grill or stovetop pan to medium-high heat.
2. If using a grill, thread the marinated meat onto skewers for easy cooking.
3. Cook the meat for about 5-7 minutes on each side until it’s fully cooked and slightly charred.
4. If using a stovetop pan, heat a drizzle of oil and cook the meat in batches until it’s cooked through and nicely browned.

Step 4: Assembling the Shawarma

1. Warm up your choice of flatbread or pita bread in a skillet or oven.
2. Prepare a variety of toppings and fillings such as thinly sliced lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, pickles, onions, and fresh herbs like parsley or mint.
3. Spread a dollop of your favorite sauce or dressing on the bread, such as tahini sauce, garlic yogurt sauce, or hummus.
4. Place a generous amount of the cooked shawarma meat onto the bread and top it with your desired toppings.

Step 5: Rolling and Enjoying

1. Fold the bread over the filling to create a wrap or roll.
2. Secure the wrap with foil or parchment paper to hold everything together.
3. Take a big bite and savor the explosion of flavors, the tender meat, and the vibrant combination of ingredients.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Perhaps the most popular of all the oils, olive oil is perfect to drizzle atop pizza or whisk into a salad dressing. Due to the fact that olive oil can start to burn at a lower heat than other oils, it is not recommended for frying.

Coconut Oil

This creamy oil has a rich, nutty flavor that blends deliciously into Asian style dishes or curries. It’s also a great vegan substitute for butter while baking.

Peanut Oil

If you’re interested in cooking up a batch of crispy fried chicken, stick with peanut oil. Refined peanut oil has a neutral taste and a very high smoke point, making it a perfect choice for deep frying.

Avocado Oil

Despite being on the pricier side compared to other options, this oil really has it all. It’s rich in healthy fats, has a delicately buttery flavor for drizzling, and it can be used for sautéing as well.

Ingredients

These cookies only use the following ingredients: oats, nut milk, dulce de leche, and coconut flakes. You can add anything you want and use whatever type of milk you have.

Method

1. Mix the oats and coconut together in a bowl.
2. Pour in the dulce de leche and stir into the other ingredients. You really only need about a teaspoon or two to get the flavor, but use as much as you like.
3. Pour in the milk and mix until everything is well combined.
4. Place a tablespoon dough on a parchment covered cookie sheet and flatten with the back of the spoon or your hand
5. Bake for 5-7 minutes and they’re ready to be eaten or stored for 3-5 days in an airtight container
