Beef Donair

Ingredients

  • Donair meat
  • 3 to 3.5 pounds lean ground beef
  • 2 tsp flour
  • 2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1.5 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 4 tsp paprika
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1.5 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp salt

Sauce

  • 1 can (300ml) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/3 cup white vinegar
  • 1 tsp garlic powder

To Serve

  • Pita bread
  • 1 tomato, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
  2. Mix all meat mixture ingredients together in a food processor. Process until it comes together into a ball, and then a bit more.
  3. Form into a log shape and put on a cooling rack on a foil-covered baking pan. Bake for 2 hours. Allow to coolcompletely, and preferably refrigerate before slicing.
  4. For the sauce, mix the three ingredients well until it comes together. Regridgerate until ready to serve.
  5. To assemble a donair, warm a pita bread by slightly dampening it’s surface with water and laying it in a hot frying pan about 30 seconds on each side. Thinly slice donair meat and quickly fry it in the same hot pan, either to simply heat or to crisp it… a personal preference. Lay the cooked meat on the softened pita, top with a generous spoon of sauce, diced tomatoes and onions. Roll it up, or wrap in foil to keep it together.
