As for a kid born and lived for 22 years in Kuwait 🇰🇼, shawarmas are essential part of my life and diet altogether. Having some great insights, I thought to share this recipe with my cookpad family as its hard to find an actual Shwarma with authentic taste in Pakistan. Hope you enjoy this, do let me know in comment below
