With interest rates creeping ever upwards, here’s a lunchtime meal that proves Greeks don’t have the only mortgage on lamb in a wrap. The Makool’s busy Oasis Bakery is churning out a $7 Lebanese version of souvlaki, called sharwarma. In-house freshly baked flat bread is wrapped around the usual suspects of spit-roasted lamb, lettuce and tomato and then takes a decided Middle Eastern turn with the addition of parsley and onion dusted with sumac and pickled cabbage with beetroot tinged edges, all doused with tahina sauce - extra fillings available, sadly, not interest rate relief.
Place: Oasis Bakery, 9/993 North Road, Murrumbeena, 9570 1122
Open: Seven days a week, 8.00am till 7.00pm, dine in or takeaway
Cards: Yes, except American Express or Diners Club
No license
Fantastic! Loved Oasis.. maybe you should try and extract the recipe from them and post it!?
ReplyDeleteYes, that sounds extra wonderfully good. I'd love to try this sandwich. I even have sumac, might have to work on the pickled cabbage with beetroot tinged edges!
ReplyDeleteHi stephanie, I tried to extract their secret, but they threatened to put me on the spit and that would be tragedy, for I'm certainly not a spring lamb!
ReplyDeleteHi tanna, love to see how you go with it. All they do to get the beetroot tinge is to pop a couple of slices in with the cabbage while its pickling, they do the same thing with turnips too.
