Döner kebab

Okay, so you know when we have chicken or beef and we cook it on a stick and then slice it off to eat? Well, döner kebab is kinda like that, but with lamb or chicken.

First, we season the meat really well with special spices like paprika and cumin. Then, we stack the meat onto a big pole and cook it slowly over a fire.

As the meat cooks, we shave off thin slices with a sharp knife and put it inside a pita bread or a wrap. We add some vegetables like lettuce, tomato, onion, and cucumber and then maybe some sauces like yogurt or spicy chili sauce.

And that's it! Döner kebab is a really tasty and popular street food in many places around the world.
