I have been humbled by its reception

Ottolenghi Shawarma Marinade Knives and Boards or scatter over grilled vegShawarma is the inspiration, but this marinade has ambitions beyond the pitta. Slow cooked onions and sweet tomatoes give it a rich, jammy base, while cloves and cumin add warmth that builds slowly and stays. It's the kind of depth that takes hours to achieve on its own here, it comes in a spoonful. Exceptional with meat, but equally at home coating robust vegetables before roasting butternut squash and celeriac both take to it beautifully. 180g.
