Fillet Steak Shawarma Sliders (+Others!)
I have been cooking some cracking recipes from Posh Kebabs lately and when I came to write this blog post up I assumed this dish was from that book. However, it is actually from Levant by Rawia Bishara.
This recipe is from the Levant cookbook:
Levant: New Middle Eastern Flavours

900g of fillet steak from our local butcher. I didn’t really think about this in advance. Fillet steak is expensive (this piece was over £40), we didn’t need as much as 900g for the four of us (2 small kids) and another, cheaper cut would probably have sufficed!
The Prep:
This was a great opportunity to use a wide range of herbs and spices from Steenbergs: currey powder, black pepper, ground coriander, turmeric, cardamom and nutmeg in a bowl with the chopped fillet steak, diced garlic, rapeseed oil and white vinegar. All mixed together and put to one side.
I also made Tahini yoghurt from the same book: Tahini, yoghurt and pomegranate molasses whisked together and left in the fridge.
The Cook:
A full chimney starter of Stag mixed hardwood charcoal poured into the Napoleon Pro 22, grill on then a big Petromax cast iron pan placed on top. Once everything was warmed up I poured the meat mixture into the pan.
I kept stirring it regularly.
Only about 5 minutes of cooking.
Time to Eat:
Served with mini pittas, tahini pomegranate hot sauce, red onion, tomatoes, parsley, pickled veg and more hot sauce.
Glorious!

This was another lovely recipe from Gunpowder, really enjoyed it. The goat mince from Cabrito Goat was fantastic as always.
