Homemade Doner Kebab That Tastes EXACTLY Like Your Local Kebab Shop



🔥 Today I’m recreating the viral Kebab House Style Doner Kebab at home — using the perfect fat ratio, authentic seasoning, and an easy oven method that gives you that REAL takeaway texture and flavour.

If you love kebabs, this is the closest you’ll get to the proper doner experience without a rotating grill!

In this video I’ll show you:
✔️ How to get the right fat content for that soft, juicy doner texture
✔️ The exact spice blend used in kebab shops
✔️ How to shape and cook the doner in a normal home oven
✔️ My homemade white garlic sauce & chilli sauce
✔️ My fresh homemade chilli sauce
✔️ How to slice and serve it just like your favourite kebab takeaway

This recipe is perfect for meal prep, gatherings, or your weekend fakeaway!

    Latif – respect bro, this came out so well, better than any takeaway!

    I used a whole breast of lamb, boned out, as it has the perfect meat-to-fat ratio, with no adding anything!

    I also added a teaspoon of ground cinnamon, which gives a really lovely little warmth of flavour – well worth thinking about.

    Was so impressed with the result, it'll be a favourite from now on – great work mate.

    This looks fantastic, can’t wait to try this! However proper kebab shop chilli sauce is never cooked, it’s always raw. Onion, garlic, chilis, a tomato, and importantly a carrot, add a little splash of water and blend until smooth. Done.

    Things have reached a breaking point when a small doner kebab, small chips and a can of coke now costs £17 per person. We'll start doing this in the air fryer because we can't justify spending £85 per week on a single takeaway mean.

    I was initially irritated this post wasn’t prepared by a Turkish chef. But after watching, and seeing you’re using lamb with extra fat, I have designated you an honorary Turk. However, there should be more garlic in the ‘toum’ and it should be crushed with salt, no gherkin, none, ever!!!!

    Thank you best kebab recipe like been said on here you can make a lot of Donna meat it’s fresh and would cost a lot in a shop£35 at least

  18. @AlexinWales

    I particularly like the simple cooking method it gives a very good result and you can cook a single kebab but save any excess mix ready prepared in the freezer for later use.
    The majority of recipes are baked in loaf tins which gives a very different texture or require you to make a much larger quantity and own a rotisserie grill (which admittedly I do own but rarely need that much doner meat).

  19. @krunchie2024

    Looks great and I bet it tastes wonderful! I'd imagine its actually better than at least 90% of places selling doners, because they won't be using 100% lamb. The factories that make the big doner skewers will be mixing in as much cheap meat, likely chicken, as they can get away with. By adding the fat, what you may be doing is compensating for whatever fatty chicken (my guess would be the same mechanically stripped meat that's in McNuggets) is in a typical doner. If you can nail the same texture/mouthfeel with 100% lamb, your kebab will taste better than a takeaway.

    this could possible be done at a pub right , just precook a mayo bucket of kebab and grab some under the salamader bread wrap plate fries 16£ boom

    I miss a doner kebab, they don’t have them here in Canada or rather not like back in the UK, am so doing this tomorrow but with beef mince (husband hates lamb 😢). When you said you had asbestos hands all I thought of was Marco Pierre Wright saying “what are fingers for … burning” 🤣. Thank you Latif

    You still can't beat doner kebab's from the 90's. Pure lamb, cut the proper way with blades and compared to today's mixed lamb and beef and god knows what else. My advice would be make it at home or find a specialist kebab house that make their own doner, and avoid the mass-produced paste at all cost.

  27. @Thedbiscuit

    Well done sir just happened across your video absolute banger cooked the other day tastes spot on and amazing keep up the good work now time to binge watch your other videos see what other awesome treats you can help me make

  37. @Iamwhoiam359

    Finally I have seen something you cooked that looks half decent but couple things from me……
    Chillie sauce looks shit
    Kebab very very greasy
    It’s not prescription like medicine it’s prescribe and stop saying amazing home chefs sound boring….

    But not bad video

  41. @Ghost.uk.1

    Been watching you now from day one and nothing surprises me when it comes to your cooking, my food use to be bland but now full of flavour and that’s all because of you could be why my mrs became my wife 😂 but I remember a few years ago now you mentioned about doing a cook book is this something your still going to do as I would 💯 buy one best wishes to you and hope you have a happy new year 👍.

  43. @Ghost.uk.1

    This has made my day and will be giving this a try later on I do have a request please latif can you do a recipe for Katlamas please 😁👍🏻

  48. @aeqhhkarim2

    I made this today – 1/1/26 – it’s absolutely delicious n so simple to make it. I have shared the recipe with friends n family n they will be trying it too.
    Have tried other recipes but they have been a big let down.

    Jazak Allahu khyraan Bro Latif.
