THE ORIGINAL DONAIR FROM THE EAST COAST OF CANADA



The Original Donair From the East Coast of Canada image

In the early 70's, a Greek restaurateur in the city of Halifax introduced the Donair. Within a few short years, virtually all pizzerias had added their version of the dish to their menus. Not to be confused with gyros, the Donair has a vastly different flavor. Originally the dish was made with ground lamb, but this proved too costly and ground beef was later substituted. Technically, this resulted in an aberration of sorts, as the final product was not what the originator had intended. What resulted, however, is the legendary East Coast Donair.

Time 9h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound ground beef
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon paprika
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
½ cup white sugar
¼ cup white vinegar, or to taste
6 large pita bread rounds

Steps:

  • In a bowl, thoroughly mix together the ground beef, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, paprika, cayenne pepper, and oregano. Pack the spiced meat into a thick loaf shape, cover, and let rest in the refrigerator overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place the meat loaf onto a baking sheet, and bake for 1 hour, flipping the loaf over halfway through cooking. Allow the meat loaf to cool so it holds together for slicing.
  • Mix together the evaporated milk and white sugar in a bowl, stirring until the sugar is dissolved, and then add the vinegar by teaspoons, mixing together after each addition, to taste. Refrigerate the sauce until serving.
  • Slice the meat loaf into 1/4-inch thick slices, and brown the slices in a skillet over medium heat until both sides are brown and crisp, about 5 minutes per side.
  • Sprinkle the pita bread rounds with a little water, and press each onto a heated skillet to warm up.
  • To serve, place several slices of meat into a warmed pita bread, and spoon about 2 tablespoons of sauce over the meat. Roll the pita bread into a cone shape, wrap in aluminum foil to keep the sauce from dripping out, and serve.

DONAIR



Donair image

Donairs are a delicacy prevalent in the Canadian east coast, and certainly centered on the City of Halifax, they are very simple to prepare and very delicious. Make a double batch of the meatloaf, and freeze the second loaf for later, in fact the second loaf will be better! When cold you can slice it thinner and fry up the slices in the frying pan as you need them.

Time 4h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ½ pounds ground beef
⅓ cup bread crumbs
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 ½ teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon salt
⅔ cup nonfat evaporated milk
⅔ cup sugar
⅓ cup vinegar
6 pita bread rounds
3 tomatoes, chopped
1 large onion, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the ground beef, bread crumbs, cayenne pepper, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, ground black pepper, and salt. Press into an 8x8 inch square baking dish, or casserole dish.
  • Bake for 2 hours in the preheated oven, until cooked through. Set aside to cool for at least 1/2 hour, the meat will slice even better if it is actually chilled completely.
  • To make the sauce, combine the evaporated milk, sugar and vinegar in a jar with a lid, and shake well to blend. Set aside to thicken.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, and slice off thin slices of the meat loaf. Fry the slices briefly in the hot skillet, until browned on each side. Remove from the skillet, and keep warm. Flick a little water onto the hot skillet, and brown the pita breads a little on each side to soften.
  • Load up one side of pitas with meat slices, tomatoes and onion. Spoon sauce over the filling, and fold pitas in half, then towards the center. Voila, you're eating!

DASH RIPROCK'S REAL HALIFAX DONAIR



Dash Riprock's Real Halifax Donair image

I have been a cook at various eating establishments around Halifax. I have even been a pizza/donair cook. Being a lover of Donair's I have put together my own recipe for Donair. I have been making it for a couple of years now, and many people have told me it is one of the best Donair's they have had. So I hope you will enjoy it too.

Categories     Meat

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb of medium ground beef
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon flour
1 teaspoon ground oregano
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
398 ml whole milk
175 ml sugar
2 teaspoons garlic powder
4 -6 teaspoons white vinegar

Steps:

  • DONIR MEAT: take all the spices mix them together well add the spices to the meat a little at a time,working the spices through the meat well when spices are all worked into the meat,pick the meat up and throw it down into a steel mixing bowl.
  • Do this 20-30 times, kneading it after each time.
  • When throwing the meat you need to throw it down with force.
  • This gives the meat the proper texture, like you find at a donair shop. Once this is done cut the meat into 1 lb loafs; pat the meat like you would a hamburger, but make it into a loaf shape. Place the loaves on a broiler pan (if you don't have one a cookie sheet will do). Bake at 350°F for 1-1/4 hrs (turn them over at half the way through).
  • Let the meat cool down before you cut it.
  • Once it is cut up, you can fry it or not, depending if you like your donair meat crispy or not.
  • DONAIR SAUCE: Open the can of milk pour it into a steel or glass bowl (not plastic--it won't set up properly in plastic). Pour the sugar & garlic powder in; mix this together well.
  • Slowly add the vinegar and mix this together slowly. (If you mix the vinegar in too fast it won't thicken up properly).
  • Once this is done cover and refrigerate.
  • TO PREPARE DONAIRS: Heat the meat up in a frying pan till it is lightly crispy.
  • Wet a pita bread and place it into a lightly oiled pan; cook it until it is soft on medium heat.
  • Once this is done, take sauce & lightly coat the pita on one side.
  • Place about 100g of meat and then pour more donair sauce over it.
  • Place chopped onion & tomatoes on it.
  • bon appitite!
  • PS. The leftover meat can be kept in the freezer for future use. The sauce however will only last a couple of days once refrigerated.
