• 4 units Pita bread

Directions

Step 1

Place the soy curls in a large bowl and cover with boiling water. Let them soak for about 10 minutes until they are rehydrated, then drain and squeeze out any excess water.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, ground coriander, ground turmeric, ground cinnamon, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well.

Step 3

Add the rehydrated soy curls to the spice mixture, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes.

Step 4

Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated soy curls to the skillet and cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are browned and slightly crispy.

Step 5

While the soy curls are cooking, warm the pita bread in a separate pan or oven.

Step 6

To assemble the vegan shoarma, fill each pita bread with a portion of the soy curl mixture.

Step 7

Top with slices of tomato, cucumber, red onion, and chopped parsley.

Step 8

Drizzle with vegan yogurt or tahini sauce.
