Schawarma

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup yogurt, 4 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 teaspoons sumac, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and pepper.
  2. Pour yogurt marinade into a gallon zippered bag, add lamb steaks, and refrigerate for 8 - 24 hours.
  3. Heat oven to 225 degrees.
  4. Remove steaks from bag, discarding marinade, and wipe dry (more or less) with paper towels. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large, lidded saute pan over medium-high heat. Brown steaks on both sides in pan (about 3 minutes per side).
  5. Pour off excess oil, cover saute pan, and cook in the oven for 1 hour. In the meantime, combine sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
  6. Remove steaks from pan and slice thinly across the grain. Spoon sauce down the center of a loaf of flat bread or pita. Add tomato and a leaf or two of lettuce. Add lamb, roll up, and enjoy.
  7. And save those juices in the saute pan and sop bread in them for an amazing treat.
