About Lamb shawarma

Lamb Shawarma is a flavorful Middle Eastern dish featuring thinly sliced, marinated lamb seasoned with a blend of spices like cumin, coriander, paprika, and garlic. Traditionally cooked on a vertical rotisserie, the meat is tender and infused with aromatic flavors. Often served in pita bread or flatbread, it’s paired with fresh vegetables such as lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumber, and topped with creamy tahini sauce or tangy yogurt. Lamb is a good source of protein, iron, and vitamin B12, which support energy and muscle health. However, it can be high in saturated fat, so portion control is advisable. Accompanying vegetables add fiber, vitamins, and minerals, enhancing its nutritional profile. While Lamb Shawarma is indulgent and satisfying, opting for lighter sauces and whole-grain breads can make it a more balanced choice.
