When it comes to mouth-watering street food, few things beat the aroma and taste of a freshly made shawarma.

Originating from the Middle East, this dish has gained global popularity thanks to its tantalizing combination of spiced meat, fresh vegetables, and sauces, all wrapped up in a soft flatbread.

<h3>What Makes a Shawarma Large?</h3>

A large shawarma isn’t just about adding more meat or stuffing it with extra ingredients; it’s about elevating the entire experience. Typically, a large shawarma is made using a larger flatbread, like a large pita or lavash, and is filled to the brim with a hearty portion of marinated meat – usually chicken, lamb. The meat is slow-cooked on a vertical rotisserie, allowing it to absorb flavors from a unique blend of spices such as cumin, coriander, paprika, garlic, and turmeric.
