Ingredients

  • 400 g beef chuck
  • 400 g pork shoulder
  • 1 tbsp universal meat seasoning
  • 1 tbsp garam masala
  • 12 g salt
  • 200 g skyr or greek yogurt
  • 200 g plain yogurt
  • 100 g mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp tzatziki seasoning
  • 5 pcs pita bread
  • 150 g mixed salad greens
  • 100 g red cabbage
  • 2 pcs tomato
  • 1 pcs fresh cucumber
  • ½ pcs red onion

Instructions

  1. 1

    Grind chuck beef and pork shoulder using a fine die, or alternatively, buy ground meat in equal proportions of 1:1 (400g of each type).

  2. 2

    Add 1 tablespoon of meat seasoning, 1 tablespoon of garam masala, and 10-12g of salt (which is 1-1.5% of the meat weight) to the meat.

  3. 3

    Knead the meat vigorously for 4-5 minutes until the mixture becomes sticky and adheres to your hands.

  4. 4

    Divide the meat mixture into two equal portions, 400g each. Spread the first portion on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  5. 5

    Evenly flatten the meat over the entire surface of the baking sheet to a thickness of 2-3mm. Cover with a second sheet of parchment paper, pressing carefully to remove any air bubbles.

  6. 6

    Roll the meat into a log, remembering not to make the diameter too small. Repeat this step with the second portion of meat.

  7. 7

    Bake in an oven preheated to 180°C (top-bottom heat) for 20 minutes.

  8. 8

    After removing from the oven, unroll the paper. Divide the meat into pieces imitating slices from a kebab cone.

  9. 9

    Place the meat back in the oven for 5-6 minutes at 200°C with convection heat to lightly brown it.

  10. 10

    Prepare the sauce by mixing skyr, plain yogurt, and mayonnaise in a ratio of 1:1:0.5, then season with tzatziki seasoning.

  11. 11

    Warm up the pita bread. Spread sauce on the bottom, then add vegetables: lettuce, red cabbage, tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onion.

  12. 12

    Place a portion of meat on top (about 160g per person) and drizzle with additional sauce.
