Notes
INGREDIENTS
If you love garlic add more! Add more or less garlic to taste. You can use garlic powder if you prefer or Ranch Seasoning would also be epic in this recipe. Ranch is definitely not middle eastern but lends itself to this creamy sauce. Dill can be substituted with chopped mint or parsley. I use fresh dill, but dried dill (or dried mint) can be used. Sour cream or a combination of sour cream and mayonnaise can be used if you prefer a doner sauce based on mayonnaise. I use fresh lemon juice only.
Season with sea salt flakes and cracked black pepper.
Extra virgin olive oil can be added for more fat and flavour. VARIATIONS Roasted garlic can be added for a milder and sweeter roasted garlic kebab sauce. Use coconut yogurt for a dairy free vegan garlic kebab sauce. To make black garlic sauce swap fresh garlic cloves with black garlic cloves. WHAT TO SERVE GARLIC SAUCE WITH Serve with beef kafta, burgers, grilled meats, threaded kebabs like chicken shish tawook or even with hour sous vide wagyu steaks. This is the perfect doner kebab sauce recipe. Slather the sauce onto before wrapping or use it as a dipping sauce for kebabs. STORAGE
Store in an airtight jar in the fridge. It will last up to a week. HOW TO MAKE GARLIC SAUCE I have included how to make the kebab shop garlic sauce in the Thermomix as well as conventional methods. If you want to mix the sauce in a food processor or blender, use the smallest jug or bowl possible and mix until smooth. SERVING SIZES
