Shawarma, the delicious Israeli fast food
is made by piling up the spiced meat on a rotating vertical spit. This allows
the flavors to drip from top to bottom and makes the meat moist and tasty. It
is slow roasted as it rotates for hours on end. The dripping fat bastes the
meat below it. The crispy slices of meat are stuffed into pita bread with fresh
vegetables, pickles, and tahini sauce. This healthful, filling, tasty whole
meal, in a single sandwich is surely going to knock your socks off.
The Incredible Shawarma at Habayit kosherrestaurant is made by impaling layers of meat on an oversize spit with a flat
base and roasting the meat in an upright rotisserie. Marinated in spices
including cardamom and cinnamon, exterior layer of meat which is dripping with
spices and flavor is sliced off the rotating shawarma. The heat creates a crunchy,
juicy bite of meat which is then laid in a piece of warm, fresh pita or a laffa
(a thick, flat bread wrap that is larger than a regular pita) along with
various spreads, sauces and vegetables.
Once the roasted meat is sliced off, a
layer of meat, not yet exposed to heat is revealed which is then rotated around
the heat source till it’s perfectly roasted. If it’s not quite crisp, it can be
thrown onto the flat-top for a minute or two. The result will be a mix of
crispy and moist shreds of meat that are full of both flavor and texture. It is
then ready for the next individual purchasing a quick bite of Middle Eastern
goodness. The best shawarma will be sliced straight from the spit.
