Beef shawarma is a popular Middle Eastern dish made by marinating thin slices of beef in a blend of spices such as cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, and garlic, then slow-roasting it on a vertical rotisserie. The tender, flavorful meat is traditionally served in flatbread like pita or lavash and paired with fresh toppings such as tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, and parsley, as well as creamy condiments like tahini or garlic sauce. Originating from Levantine cuisine, beef shawarma is rich in protein and provides essential vitamins and minerals like iron and B12 from the meat and fresh vegetables. However, it can be high in sodium and fats depending on the preparation, particularly if served with heavy sauces or fried accompaniments. Opting for whole-grain wraps and lighter sauces can enhance its nutritional profile, making it a delicious and moderately healthy meal option.
