Can u turn this into a series? Like do a whole big meal of one type/ style/ culture of food? I think some African regions could result in a really cool and fun challenge.

I know pretty much nobody will end up buying the rotisserie machine, but if you'd still like to make shawarma, the youtube channel Middle Eats has an excellent video with a few suggestions on how to make shawarma or any other kebab style meat with pretty minimal equipment in the oven (great channel overall for anyone who wants to try any traditional Arab dishes btw). The results are pretty great and I no longer go to shawarma/kebab spots and instead make it at home. As Joshua pointed it out, it's a pretty great meal for family or even a group of friends coming over.

More non fast food recipes like this one please! Those are the ones that made me love this channel

As an ex-shawarma chef, I gotta chime in.

Thank you for making toum correctly. Tired of seeing people add egg whites!
Now I know this is a Turkish/Lebanese combo, but there are elements in here I've never seen before.
From a Lebanese stand point:
For our rice, we don't put orzo. We put in vermicelli noodles.
For pickles, we use pickled turnips for chicken, and green wild cucumber for the beef. No other pickles.
For veggies, we use (fresh) tomatoes for chicken and a parsley and onion mix for beef.
And lastly for the chicken, we marinate it in yoghurt because yoghurt makes everything better.
I recommend coming to Detroit or even Ottawa Canada, or Montreal, to try some amazing shawarma. Better than anything you'll find the avengers eating in New York for sure 😆

As a Turk, I'm actually quite impressed, that you did it the Turkish way. The rice, the gözleme the shawarma your pronunciation are all very impressive. Keep up the good work my bro!!

Being Lebanese I am partial to our traditional shawarma; flatbread, toum and hummus, pickles (specitically Mouneh), fries, onion and chicken. Just awesomeness to go! Toast that rolled up shawarma in a pan for a bit, making the flatbread crispy, nothing beats it!

Amateur Lebanese Chef here. Your Toum is on point. Glorious.
PS: We add a couple drops of orange blossom water in the halva, makes a world of difference.
Much love & pitas from Beirut!

As someone who's Turkish, this warms my heart completely! Hats off to sticking to the traditional recipes and nailing them, thank you!

[serdarozturk]

As a turkish i wanted to thank you. When our so called chefs don't give a crap about our own cuisine you are making some of the turkish foods. Again thank you

[nixodine]

This reminds me of the older videos and I love it!

Seems like most recent videos were about chicken sandwiches

[Lojcs]

As a Türk, I have a couple comments.
Cacık is often made by adding water to what you made and served in a bowl to drink alongside the meal
Helva made from flour is the least exciting of all helvas. It is much better made from semolina.
Bazlama is often thicker and much harder to wrap things in. Flat bread used to wrap things is called pide, and the thinner one is called lavaş
Optionally adding kaşar cheese, raw onions or yoğurt+mayo+garlic sauce to the wrap could improve the flavor.
Raw meatballs would be a great addition to the table. They are made with bulgur, lots of spice and optionally raw meat. Served with lettuce leaves and pomegranate sauce, or optionally as a wrap.

I been missed the longer cooking videos. This video definitely satisfies

[wildlyunrulyadventures]

Yes! YES!! *YES!!!* I love Shawarma but have always been too intimidated to try making it at home. You make it look so much easier than I imagined it. I can totally do this.

[jerrycapizzi]

Love these new recipes. I've attempted to duplicate some of them at home, but a few of the more exotic spices are difficult to locate in my local groceries. Wish there was some guide as to the best places to shop for ingredients.

[rexatcecg]

Never seen a YouTuber in Illinois, let alone Naperville of all places!! That is awesome.

the toum part made my lebanese heart melt

My parents were hoping to go to Israel for their 40th anniversary but had to cancel plans due to the war. So my siblings and I planned an anniversary evening for them and did a middle eastern themed meal last night. My wife and I used this recipe for the most part for our supper and it turned out amazing. My mom kept raving about it! Excellent job Josh!

[oblomovbyoblomov]

That’s an almost perfect pronunciation of Gözleme, as a Turkish I approved it 🎉

[bosanac]

If I could say one thing, it's that your recipes are the absolute easiest to understand. The best structure. The best ideas.
I made your bagels yesterday and they were fire!

This looks so good! Always a good day when Papa posts a new video
