Original Shawarma Ingredients

Preparation

1. In a small bowl, mix all the Cucumber & Dill Sauce ingredients together thoroughly and refrigerate.
2. In another bowl, mix the tuna with the cumin until combined.
3. Lay the pita flat and place the tuna mixture along the centre of the pita. Then top with shredded romaine lettuce, diced tomato, onion followed by the pickle spear and cucumber ribbons. Drizzle the sauce on top and roll pita tightly.

Tip: If you prefer, you can break open the pita and stuff contents into the pita pocket.
