It's much different in the Middle East, especially in Lebanon, Palestine and it is the best shawerma . Thanks for sharing no offense but Somac is a the best spice to use in shwerma. Just if you add it it makes a delicious flavor.

[@Marshmellew.97]

As a Jordanian, I eat shawerma Allllllll the time!! Your recipe looks so good😋.. And just to add we traditionally put garlic sauce : we cook water and corn starch until it is thick (like the consistency of a pudding) then we put it in a bowl and let it cool... Then we put in the mixer some olive oil, salt, 4-5 garlic gloves and the water and starch mix.. You mix everything until smooth and that's it! It taste amazing with shawarma and you can use it as a dip for chicken or beef 😋😋

Hi John, Been wanting to reach out for some time but didn’t know how to reach you. Saw you commenting a lot on this video so hopefully you see this. I found your channel right around when the quarantine happened in 2020. I have a big sweet tooth and was missing out on those restaurant desserts. I started watching your videos and making your recipes and now…I have a real passion for baking and cooking thanks to you. I think the best part of cooking and baking is the satisfaction as joy I see on my wife’s and daughter’s face when they try these dishes. Friends and family also love them. Just wanted to take a moment to say “thank you” so THANK YOU!! -Joe

[@PreppyKitchen]

[@LukaWillems]

nice choice of food I Love your recipe for your. Cooking

[@lujaynejasser]

Although this is not authentic at all (coming from a Palestinian). I appreciated the effort lol Maybe next time use some sumac and Saj bread, add some picked pink turnips, And maybe make some toum instead of the yogurt. (Just garlic oil and salt. You can find tons of recipes online). Chicken shawarma does not really use lettuce cucumber as tomato. It originally uses pickles toum and fries. Beef shawarma on the other hand does use tomato and cucumber with pickles too. Sometimes we even add hummus too!! Great job!

[@J.P.A.-vt8id]

Great Shawarma recipes!

[@AliAli-wg2lc]

In the original recipe, we add yogurt, which makes the chicken more tender

[@zveqar473]

How much yoghurt would you add?

[@AliAli-wg2lc]

@@zveqar473 2_3 Tbsp and marinade the chicken over night in the fridge or at least 6 hours

You can also add lemon zest😉

[@halamakssoud9329]

Also I have never done shawerma with coriander. it changes the whole taste I guess.

[@KhouryNatalie]

This looks great! One problem though is a lot of boneless thigh meat still has gristle and other nasty bits that needs removed before chopping and eating. I guess some like that never could stand gristle or tendons.

The lemon juicing reminded me of a PSA I wanted to share: if you use one of those juicing tools, try putting the fruit in upside down, i.e. so the round end is facing you. It’s counterintuitive but I’ve found that I get way more juice out that way, especially with limes which can be stubborn to give up their juice.

[@lyan5126]

Isn’t that how they are supposed to be used?

[@jeniferjohnson374]

Thanks!

[@amjesla]

Hahaha, I just can't! If the fruit is too stubborn, I juice it as the tool form, then flip it around when it's softer. My petit hands can't do it right away as you say

[@AnEvilTurnip]

For juicing limes, you can juices the halves separately, and then juice both at the same time to squeeze out every last drop.

[@Coolcucumber905]

Try microwaving the lime for 10-20 seconds first .. then roll and squeeze. You're welcome 😊

[@DrBrunoRecipes]

That looks delicious 👌🏻 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a wonderful day everyone 🌻 Stay blessed 😍

Wouldn't the lemon marinade "cook" the chicken if left overnight?

Okay, guys, I was waiting for the sumac. Every passionate cook gets excited over a new and unfamiliar ingredients and many (supposedly) authentic recipes for shawarma include ground sumac in their marinade. Difficult to find in grocery stores so I got mine online. Very unique and distinctive. I encourage you to get some and try it.

[@manuelfuentesguerra88]

John, blend 3 to 5 habaneros with the juice of one full orange, add a little granulated garlic, blend it and then fold into mayonnaise, season it to taste, it is always great for wraps, sandwiches, wings, burgers and dips, hope you see this.
