Shawarma (, , also spelled Chawarma, Shwarma, Shuarma, Shawerma, Shoarma or Shaorma) is a
Middle Eastern-style
sandwich usually composed of shaved
lamb,
goat, or
chicken. Less often, it may contain
turkey,
beef, or a mixture of meats. Shawarma is a popular dish and fast-food staple across the Middle East, and is consumed across the rest of the world as well. Shawarma is known as guss in
Iraq; it is related to the famous
gyros of
Greece. Gyros, however, is made of ground meat whereas shawarma is made of meat filets.
