Beef Shawarma with Rice

Ingredients

• •700 g beef, cut into thin strips
• •1 large onion, sliced
• •2 cups rice
• •3 tbsp olive oil
• •1 tsp cumin + 1 tsp cinnamon + 1 tsp black pepper
• •Salt to taste
• •A handful of green olives, to serve

Steps

1. 1Marinate the beef with the onion, olive oil, cumin, cinnamon, pepper, and salt. Massage with your hands and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (overnight is best).
2. 2Cook the rice as usual with a pinch of salt.
3. 3Heat a large pan on high heat — no extra oil needed (the marinade has enough).
4. 4Add the beef in two batches so it doesn't steam. Leave undisturbed for 2 minutes, then flip and cook another 2 minutes until browned.
5. 5Combine all the beef back in the pan for one final minute to bring the flavors together, then take it off the heat.
6. 6Serve the beef over the rice with green olives on the side.
