Title: who loves kebab shop chilly sauce!
Post by: Derek Dansak on May 28, 2008, 04:19 PM
Although not anything to do with BIR cookery, i thought it might be worthy of a quick post. Its certainly another trade secret which i would love to crack. Being a bit of an addict to all things curry or chillies. Just what goes into that bubbly vat of chilly sauce they have steaming away unobtrusively in the corner! Another of lifes little mysteries!

hi i asked how to make this in a kebab shop in ashford, the guy said use tomato puree(tinned variety) mixed with water chilli powder pinch salt and splash of lemon juice(i have seen the bottles for this and it looks like a lemon juice dressing which i had seen for sale in iceland a couple of years ago, so don't know if they still do it) it is a clear long tapered bottle with green or yellow squirty lid. but i guess plj from a normal bottle will suffice. it's not too disimliar from the phall sauce recipe i posted but without the coriander/curry base sauce and the rajver masala( curry powder. just chuck it all in a saucepan and bring to boil and then reduce to a simmer, have made it and goes great with chicken kebab done on the bbq with crunchy leaf salad shredded cabbage (you can do this in your food processor), tomato and lemon wedge to squirt over (cucumber optional) and pickled long green chillies. can smell it now!

regards
gary

Hey guys,

Well I used to work in a chippy and the guys there made their own chilli sauce for the kebabs.

They basically used a massive pot and filled it up with a large bottle, catering size, of tomato ketchup and then about half as much water.  Add some salt, sugar, lots of chilli powder and some mixed herbs and boil it all up.  Leave to cool and put back in the tomato ketchup bottle and the rest :D

I am a reformed donner kebab addict, limit myself to one a month now!! so this topic has interested me. I knew the owner of Sinbads kebab house on (central drive here in Blackpool,uk) It has shut down now but made the best homemade sauces , i tried and tried to get him to show me how the chilli sauce was made, but he couldnt give his successful trade secrets away (people used to drive from miles away just to buy tubs of his sauces &kebabs!)He always gave me extra meat and sauce though!

bitchinsahsa's description sounds very similar, it definately had fresh black pepper in it, how i miss that place

ps- (cant stand that hot bolognese type that some places use, heats up the salad and makes the pita soggy)   ps-2 damn u guys, got a craving now tonite....and the kebab shops here are open to 3am!!!!  must resist, think of the cals....resistance is futile....

How about this?

http://www.gomideast.com/articles/recipes/garlicsauce.htm

I was in Israel a few years ago....worked on a Kibbutz.  Anyway, when we visited the towns....I always had a Shawarma kebab which is similar to our Doner but nicer.  I think they are meant to be the same but what we get here isn't quite authentic.  There's a place in Leicester Sq which I used to love to visit....opposite Stringfellows I think.  It's Lebansese and has a great kebab.  They would offer whole green Chillies with the Kebab which were pickled.  Anybody know what type of Chillies these might be?  Anybody tried that Kebab shop?

Yep Shawarma kebabs are nice and probably the closest thing to the British Donner when you are abroad. I would say they are a bit healthier as well! Had a really nice one in Amsterdam a while back.

Next time Im in London might check out the Leicester Sq one! My fav kebab shop also gives whole pickled chillies. Serrano and Anaheim chillies pickle well whole, and Jalapenos pickle well, but are usually silced width ways as they pack a bit of heat!

Hello all,

Great site.

If you Wait Out on this topic, i did have the recipe for one or two of the various types of kebab sauce they use up here in glasgow, one was a basic red chilli sauce (very simple to make if i remember), and the other was a kind of thicker sauce with a bit of texture to it (bit trickier to make).
Anyway will look for them just now, and let you know if i find them.

Chris.

Kebab Shop Chilli Sauce

  Ingredients
  Serves 4

1 Tin Chopped Tomatoes
1 Large onion finely chopped
4 Cloves garlic finely sliced
3 Teaspoons Mint Sauce
50ml Distilled Vinegar
Fresh Chillies (quantity to taste)
  Method
Not every kebab shop uses the same recipe but this is the style of kebab sauce that I prefer the most. I use about 3 Cherry Chillies or 10 Green Finger Chillies when I make this. Put all the ingredients in a food processor and whizz up until pureed but with small pieces of onion, garlic and chilli visible. Keep in the fridge for up to 2 days.
