The doner is a Turkish creation of meat, often lamb, but not necessarily so, that is seasoned, stacked in a cone shape, and cooked slowly on a vertical rotisserie. As the outer layers of the meat cooks, it’s shaved off and served in a pita or other flatbread with vegetables and sauce. Doner is the « mother, » as it were, of Arabic shawarma, Mexican al pastor, and the popular Greek gyros.

Although the sliced meat can be served on a platter with rice and cooked vegetables, it’s most popular as a sandwich eaten as fast street food. You might find tomatoes, lettuce, cucumbers, red onion, cucumbers, or pickles inside the pita, and the sauce might be Greek yogurt-based tzatziki or Middle Eastern tahini.
Making an authentic doner kebab at home can be a bit tricky although still possible if you have the set up for a slow cooking vertical rotating spit. For most home kitchens, however, some improvisation will be required. But the flavors and spices will be easier to recreate than the exact shape. You can form ground lamb into balls and thread them on skewers, but the easiest way to get the sliced look of a street doner kebab is to make a sort of meatloaf.

Directions

Step 1

Turn on the oven to 110°C. Make the papillotes: lay out a in a porcelain baking dish. Heat the cream and honey, add the saffron and let it infuse. Whip the sugar with the egg yolks, mix with the saffron cream and pour into the dish. Bake in the oven for 1 hour; the cream must be set without coloring. Place in a cool place for 12 hours.

Step 2

The same day, cut the cream into squares. Butter a sheet of filo; place a square on top and fold over several times. Pinch the ends, sprinkle with powdered sugar. Repeat the process. Put the papillotes in the oven on a baking sheet and brown them for 5 minutes at 210°C.

Step 3

Make the madeleines: mix the sugar, almond powder and flour; whisk in the egg whites. Pour in the melted butter and honey. Leave to cool for 1 hour. Spoon the dough into buttered madeleine molds. Bake for 10 minutes at (180°C), then turn out. Serve the papillotes warm with the madeleines with honey and possibly a little custard. Our advice : If you are unsure of the temperature of your oven your oven, bake the burnt cream in a bain-marie. If it starts starts to boil, immediately add a little cold water into the water bath. Delicious with a saffron cream. Pour 1/2 dose of saffron powder in a prepared custard with 30 cl of milk, 2 egg yolks and 50 g of sugar.
