Shawarma (/ʃəˈwɑːrmə/; Arabic: شاورما) is a Middle Eastern dish that originated in the Levant during the Ottoman Empire,[1][3][4][5] consisting of meat that is cut into thin slices, stacked in an inverted cone, and roasted on a slow-turning vertical spit. Traditionally made with lamb or mutton, it may also be made with chicken, turkey meat, beef, falafel or veal.[6][7][1] The surface of the rotisserie meat is routinely shaved off once it cooks and is ready to be served.[8][9] Shawarma is a popular street food throughout the Arab world, Levant, and the Greater Middle East.[10][11][12][13]
