We make it not only with plain beef at Afghan Kabob And Donair, but with our house spice mix and with sides such as Kabuli rice, Salad, Naan, and our infamous garlic sauce.
This makes it a favorite for:
- Quick weekday dinners
- Takeout evenings when you are craving something rich.
- Hosting parties in which everybody is in the mood to have a protein-rich meal.
