Steps:
- Mix tomato paste with 1 cup sour cream; 1/4 cup dressing; and 1-1/2 tsp. each garlic powder, coriander and cumin until blended. Pour over chicken in shallow dish; turn to evenly coat both sides of each thigh with sour cream mixture. Refrigerate 3 hours to marinate.

- Drizzle with 2 Tbsp. of the remaining dressing.
- Bake 30 to 35 min. or until chicken is done (165°F). Remove chicken from oven. Heat broiler.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip all the ingredients except the oil into a food processor with a large pinch of salt and lots of ground pepper. Pulse until everything is combined and chopped together. You can also just squish everything together in a bowl but this will give you a looser finish.
- Oil a large sheet of foil, tip the meat mix in the middle and mould to a very thick sausage, roughly the shape of an aubergine. Roll up the foil tightly, twisting up the ends to create a Christmas cracker shape.
- Lay on a shallow roasting tin and roast in the oven for 35-40 mins, turning occasionally, or until a digital cooking thermometer reads 75C when pierced in the middle. Leave the kebab to cool a little, then unwrap the foil. Place back on the tray and brown under the grill or with a blowtorch.
- Place on a board and carve into thin slices. For full doner mode, you can hold the kebab up with a roasting fork or metal skewer and carve. Serve with warm pitta bread and any of the other accompaniments, including our chilli sauce and garlic yogurt sauce.

TURKISH KEBABS
This is my version of Turkish kebabs which I made 'off the cuff' after searching unsuccessfully for a recipe online. The original sandwiches are made from meat that is pressed into a loaf and grilled on a rotating spit. The meat is shaved off as it gets crispy and then put into a pita sandwich. My recipe calls for thin slices of meat to be marinated and then broiled to get the same effect without a huge rotating grill. Serve in a warmed pita with goat cheese, tzatziki sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and pepperoncinis.

Steps:
- Place the chopped onions in a large ceramic bowl and crush with the bottom of a glass until juice is rendered and onions look translucent. Stir in 2 crushed garlic cloves, 1/2 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, oregano, 1 teaspoon black pepper, turmeric, curry powder, and 1 teaspoon salt. Mix well; add the sliced beef and toss to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
- Combine the sour cream, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, dill, and 1 crushed clove of garlic. Mix well; cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
- Remove the meat from the marinade mixture, brushing off extra onions. Spread the slices on a baking sheet without overlapping, and salt to taste. Broil about 3 minutes per side or until browned and crispy, turning halfway through cooking.
- Divide the cooked meat between the pita breads, and drizzle with tzatziki sauce to serve.

- Slice the meat thinly: When slicing the meat, make sure to slice it thinly against the grain. This will help ensure that the meat is tender and easy to chew.
- Use a variety of toppings: Doner kebab is traditionally served with a variety of toppings, such as lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and tzatziki sauce. You can also add other toppings, such as feta cheese, hummus, or pickled vegetables.
- Wrap the kebab in a fresh pita bread: Doner kebab is traditionally served wrapped in a fresh pita bread. You can also use other types of bread, such as naan or flatbread.
Conclusion:
Doner kebab is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
