What is a Halifax Donair? | Meat and Sauce Recipe
Recipe Information
Canadian Donair
Cultural Context
The Canadian Donair originated in Halifax, Nova Scotia, in the 1970s, inspired by the Middle Eastern shawarma. It quickly became a beloved street food, celebrated for its savory flavors and unique sweet sauce. Traditionally enjoyed after a night out, the donair has evolved into a staple in Canadian cuisine, with variations appearing across the country, including vegetarian options.
ground beef
🥗Healthier: ground turkey
💰Cheaper: ground pork
Ground turkey offers lower fat content while maintaining flavor.
donair sauce
🥗Healthier: yogurt-based sauce
💰Cheaper: mayonnaise with vinegar
Yogurt-based sauce reduces calories and adds tanginess.
Remove liquid from chopped onion using paper towels.
Mix ground beef with dry ingredients including corn starch, garlic powder, black pepper, cayenne powder, salt, paprika, and dried oregano.
Shape the mixture into a log.
Cook the meat until done, ensuring it is caramelized.
Prepare the sauce by mixing sweetened condensed milk, white vinegar, and garlic powder.
Assemble the donair with sliced meat, sauce, and any desired toppings.
