Step 1

To make the meat, mix all ingredients together in a food processor. Process until it comes together into a ball, and then a bit more. You might have to do this in two batches, depending on the size of your processor. You can do this by hand too, and is great if you are stressed out… grind and grind and grind the meat, throwing it down on the counter… basically beating the crap out of it. Form into a log shape and put on a cooling rack on a foil-covered baking pan.

Step 2

Bake at 325 degrees for 2 hours. Allow to cool completely, and preferably refrigerate before slicing.

Step 3

For the sauce, mix the three ingredients together, don’t worry, it will come together. Once it does, it will never separate… another benefit of this recipe. It is also very thick and will thicken up even more once refrigerated.

Step 4

To assemble a donair, warm a pita bread by slightly dampening it’s surface with water and laying it in a hot frying pan… letting it go about 30 seconds on each side. Thinly slice donair meat and quickly fry it in the same hot pan, either to simply heat or to crisp it… a personal preference. Lay the cooked meat on the softened pita, top with a generous spoon of sauce, diced tomatoes and onions. Roll it up if you can, or wrap it in foil to keep it together.
