Preheat a grill over high heat with a large cast iron skillet. When very hot, add 2 Tbsp grapeseed oil, then add lamb slices and cook until crisp on all sides, about 15-20 minutes, stirring every few minutes. The shawarma marinade will eventually cook off and the lamb should crisp up on all sides. Be patient, this takes time!

This meltingly tender Slow Cooked Shawarma is the stuff food dreams are made of!! Slathered in a deceptively simple shawarma spice rub then slow cooked until fall apart, the flavour and fragrance of this lamb is absolutely heavenly. Make this Middle Eastern speciality with lamb shoulder or lamb leg.
