Kebab: not my ideal food.
My son asked me to write him something about a dish he recently ate in Malaysia: kebab.
As far as I know, it's a bit of a piece of junk... it's a bit like a hamburger, you can put anything in it.
The real kebab (kebab means skewer) originated in Turkey and other neighboring Muslim countries; consists of layers of mutton meat overlapping and alternating with mutton fat.
To cut it, you use a long, wide knife that cuts by trimming the meat closest to the fire and which is collected with a special spatula.
The cooked meat is wrapped in unleavened bread and served with the addition of spicy sauce.
From Turkey, this dish passed to Greece, which made it a dish for tourists or sailors like my son…
In Greece, however, instead of mutton, they use pork or chicken because they are less expensive, wrapped in this bread together with fried potatoes, salad and tomatoes mixed with a very low quality sauce… In Greece the dish is called Ghyros.
From Greece, the dish then passed to us… and there are people who buy it…
Not long ago there were several articles here about a kind of mafia that owns these small establishments where they said very low quality meat was served and there were health problems and other things…
That's all I know.
A piece of advice I give to my son: don't eat this food if you can!

Shawarma (Arabic: شاورما, in turn from the Turkish çevirme), is a Middle Eastern meat dish. Although the word derives from the Turkish çevirme, meaning "turning", in Turkey this preparation is called döner kebabı; in Greece it is called γύρος gyros, and in the latter case it is mainly made from pork, an animal excluded from food consumption by populations of the Islamic religion.

I want to give you some advice for shopping: to prepare Asian rice I normally use this rice cooker, to cut this knife set Victorinox and Asian foods are almost always served in these bowls in ceramic.
