Description - Step 1

Prepare the base mixture

Chop down the onions, then transfer them to a blender. Blend until the chopped onions turn into a completely smooth paste with no visible chunks. Add this onion paste to a large mixing bowl along with the 1 kg of minced meat.

Description - Step 2

Season and mix generously

Pour in the olive oil, then add the yoghurt and all the spices – paprika, black pepper, chilli flakes, cumin, oregano, and salt. This combination gives the döner its signature aroma and flavour. Using your hands or a spatula, work the mixture thoroughly until it becomes smooth, sticky, and fully integrated. The more evenly everything is combined, the tighter and juicier your döner slices will be later.
