A simple way to make the Turkish restaurant favorite at home without a grill or deep fryer. Lean beef and thin wraps keep the calories reasonable, while a lemony, cumin-spiked tomato sauce brings the flavor. A filling choice for a weeknight dinner.

Method

  1. Pulse the onion, garlic, salt, black pepper, ground red pepper and parsley in a food processor, stopping before the onion releases its juice.

  2. Add the mixture to the ground beef and knead well.

  3. Spread the meat over the two wraps in a thin, even layer.

  4. Roll the wraps up tightly and cut them into even slices with a sharp knife.

  5. Thread the slices onto wooden skewers and arrange them on a baking tray.

  6. Mix the tomato paste with salt, black pepper, cumin and lemon juice, then add water gradually until the sauce is just pourable.

  7. Pour the sauce generously over the kebabs.

  8. Bake in a preheated 200 °C fan oven for 20–25 minutes.
