Kebab shop salad

BUDFORCE · 7 Dec 2019 at 08:32

So I know the basis of it, sliced onions, cabbage, cucumber tomato etc etc.

But if you get those things at home, and slice them up, it's nothing like the salad you get from a kebab shop.

So what is it they do to it?

Seasoning?

Oil?

Given the time this thread was started, are you just returning from a night out and examining your end-of-night kebab salad, @BUDFORCE ?

Well that's half true, I was out last night, went to see The Darkness in Cambridge, there is a cold McDonald's double cheeseburger here.

I was actually watching car throttle on YouTube and they often frequent a kebab shop, and they were having the chicken shish on a bed of salad it looked really nice.

The chicken I can do, but that salad....

Aye I'm not talking like late night takeaway type but good home made shish style.

Not that there is anything wrong with the late night style takeaway ones either.

My brother's Mrs suggested finely slicing and dousing it in white wine vinegar.

Excelent stuff.

I tried it today with white wine vinegar, vegetable oil, worked ok actually.

I shall try lemon juice next.

Surely olive oil?

Nope just regular, probably sunflower.

No I mean, surely you should use Olive Oil for the flavour rather than vegtable oil.

oh I see, no I dont really like olive oil if im honest, reckon its well overrated.
