⏱ Total Time: 65–70 min + 2 hours chilling
🍽 Serves: 6 people
💪 Skill Level: Medium

Ingredients:

● 600g (1.3lb) minced lamb (80/20 fat ratio)
● 40g (3 tbsp) Greek yogurt (plain, full-fat)
● 1 medium onion (grated, juice squeezed out)
● 3 cloves garlic (minced)
● 1¼ tsp salt
● 1 tsp paprika
● 1 tsp cumin
● 1 tsp dried oregano
● ½ tsp ground coriander
● 1 pinch cinnamon
● 1 pinch white pepper
● ½ tsp baking soda
● 1 tbsp fresh mint
● 1 tbsp parsley (chopped very fine)

Step-by-Step Method:

1. Prep Onion: Grate onion over a bowl. Squeeze juice from the pulp, then discard the liquid for a firmer meat log.

2. Mix Meat: In a large bowl, combine lamb, yogurt, onion, garlic, all spices, and baking soda.

3. Knead: Knead with hands 8–10 min (or 5 min with mixer) until meat is pale, sticky, smooth paste — the secret for sliceable doner!

4. Shape Log: Lay two layers of plastic wrap, shape meat into a tight cylinder (~5–6 cm thick). Twist ends to compress.

5. Chill: Refrigerate at least 2 hours (or freezer 45 min) to set proteins.

6. Bake: Preheat oven 180°C / 350°F. Place log on wire rack over tray. Bake 45–50 min. Optional: brush with oil + paprika halfway for color.

7. Rest & Shave: Rest 10 min, then shave long paper-thin ribbons with a sharp knife.

8. Crisp Edges (Optional): Toss shaved ribbons in hot skillet with butter 60 sec for street-food crisp.

9. Serve: In warm pita or over rice, drizzle with Greek yogurt-garlic-lemon sauce.

Tips & Tricks:
● Use baking soda to make meat tender and sliceable.
● Squeeze onion juice well to avoid soggy meat log.
● Kneading is essential — don’t skip!
● Crisping the edges in a pan enhances flavor.
