• 1/4 beef bouillon cube (crushed)
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1/4 teaspoons Red pepper
• 2 tablespoons oil
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 cup shredded cabbage
• 1 medium carrot (grated )
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise

• 2 teaspoons sweet chili sauce
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon red pepper or cayenne pepper
• 2 pocket pita breads
• 2 sausages or hotdogs (optional)

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Add the beef, salt, bouillon, onion powder, garlic, red pepper, oil, and lemon juice to a bowl. Mix until well combined.

2. 2

   Heat up a skillet and when its hot, add a little oil and then the beef in a single layer and cook until browned and cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the pan. Cook in batches if necessary.

3. 3

   When it's cooked, transfer the beef to a plate and allow it to rest for a few minutes.

4. 4

   If using sausages or hotdogs, cook them in the same pan until lightly browned. Set aside.

5. 5

   In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, ketchup, sweet chili sauce, lemon juice, and red pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.

6. 6

   Thinly shred the cabbage and grate or julienne the carrot.

7. 7

   Add the cooked beef, cabbage, carrot, and some of the sauce to a large bowl. Mix until combined.

8. 8

   If your pita bread has a pocket, gently separate it into two rounds. If the pita isn’t very fresh, leave it whole to prevent tearing.

9. 9

   Lay the pita flat on a clean work surface.

10. 10

    Add some of the beef mixture to the lower third of the bread. If using sausage or hotdogs, place one on top of the filling.

11. 11

    Fold one side of the bread over the filling, tuck in the bottom edge, then roll tightly.

12. 12

    Place the shawarma seam-side down in a dry skillet, grill pan, sandwich press, or panini maker.

13. 13

    Toast for 1 to 2 minutes per side until golden and lightly crisp.

    Slice in half and enjoy.
