What do you need for a Rotterdam Kapsalon? (for 1 person)

Basics:

• A portion of fries

• 100 grams of shawarma meat (or döner)

• 50 grams of grated cheese (for example young cheese or cheddar)

• For the salad:

• A handful of iceberg lettuce

• 1/2 cucumber, thinly sliced

• 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced

• Sauces:

• Garlic sauce

• Sambal (to taste)

How to make it:

• Fry the fries: Fry the fries until they are golden brown and crispy. Drain them on kitchen paper.

• Heat the meat: Heat the shawarma meat in a pan or grill until it is warm.

• Prepare the salad: Mix the iceberg lettuce, cucumber and red onion in a bowl.

• Build the Kapsalon: Place the fries in an oven dish. Divide the shawarma meat over it and sprinkle with the grated cheese.

• Bake the cheese: Slide the dish under the grill until the cheese has melted nicely.

• Serve: Remove the dish from the oven and divide the salad over it. Sprinkle generously with garlic sauce and sambal to taste.

Tip: For an extra crunch, you can mix in some onions or bell pepper.
