This is GMV's Lebanese inspired shawarma recipe. Shawarma is a popular Middle Eastern 'sandwiching' meat or poultry served on pitas.
本來是想做沙威瑪，但實在太大費周章，所以自編了一個改良的健康版。
做了個夏日爽口紅石榴碎麥沙拉，跟鄉村雞肉腸包在扁圓大餅麵包內，真的是一道輕食美味的午餐~

The original version used in Lebanese shawarma is slow cooked meat on rotisserie, but I've decided to use gourmet chicken sausages instead. It is topped with generous tabbouleh & pomegranate salad and lavishly spread with hommus all wrapped in between wholemeal pita bread.
No one can really resist this gorgeous delicious meal filled with GMV's 'tweaks' :)
