The whole family enjoyed this! I was surprised honestly and a bit hesitant to try it but was delicious! Thanks for the recipe 🙂

An absolute favourite in our home!!
I myself don’t like lamb so I switched that out for beef mince and it worked a treat. Cooked exactly the same as it says to do for the lamb and it comes out perfect every time.

OMG ! This recipe is just delicious! Tastes better than any kebab shop and super simple. Cooked 1kg lamb mince for 3 hours on high and it was perfect

One of my kids fave slow cooker meals!!! I have used beef instead of lamb before but my family really love the lamb. We put all the ingredients on our Lebanese bread then wrap in foil & pop in the sandwich press to get the outside toasty & crispy! Yum

I think it’s important Holly to have patience and not jump to ridiculous assumptions that are kind of embarrassing for you now :/ It was less than 3hrs between you leaving your first review and then leaving the second one complaining about the first one… you were informed comments don’t appear until moderated when you left it? Did you perhaps not read that – I’m not sure?
Patience please – I was actually running a 42km marathon at the time you left your initial review lol – then this review complaining about your other review not being posted 😉 – sorry to say I’m only human and can’t be here in every instance lol
As you can see now both are here for all to see 🙂
I’d suggest cooking a recipe as it’s intended first – before changing it 🙂
The recipe as it states is how it is best – Maybe next time 🙂
After all that’s why it has so much great feedback – because people think this ladies recipe is great?
If there was negative feedback or mixed reviews as you say it would have been approved too – just like yours was 🙂
Have a lovely day Holly xx

Did my review not go up because it was not 4 or 5 stars?!!!!!
I think it’s important for all reviews both positive and negative to be posted so that people can make an informed decision on if they want to make this. I wish I had of seen
Some mixed reviews on this, I would not have wasted my time or money.

This was really really disappointing. I made it because of all of the good reviews but found it terrible. No flavour, even though I put extra in than the recipe called for. Tasted a bit like meatloaf maybe? But not a good one. Didn’t end up eating it all. – and I only did 500g of lamb instead of 1kg. Don’t waste your time or money.

Wow! Didn’t think I was going to like this but it was AMAZING! Fed 5 of us (myself, husband and 3 adult children) easily. Used Greek seasoning and added some cayenne pepper and put the load on a bed of sliced onion (didn’t wrap it). Family weren’t keen when they saw it come out of the slow cooker, but one taste changed their minds. All of them RAVED! Definitely a regular Sunday night dinner in our house!

This recipe is so easy and far better than buying kebabs. I have mad this so many times, for hubby & myself and make extras for the family. They all love it. Sometimes a tweek it a little by adding extra flavours but always yummo.
Thank you Pauline, since finding your fb page my slow cooker has had so much use.. and it’s fairly old now. Hope it keeps on giving.

This is so full of flavour when made with mince. Will be a family favourite with homemade tortillas. Yummo

This was lovely and easy to make only suggestion is next time i would use probably only 1 and half teaspoon of mixed herbs for my own personal flavor but otherwise it was a great dish for the family 🙂

I’m giving this 4 stars as I felt it needed something extra to give it a lift…not sure what tho. Might try some ras el hanout spice from herbies next time I think.
My husband liked this very much, the 12 1/2 y/o grand daughter took one look and had 4 pieces of lettuce, 2 slices tomato, grated cheese and carrot :(, so all in all very mixed responses.

WOW. This recipe is definitely a keeper in our house. Was hesitant at first with my track record on meat loaf 🤣. But turned out beautiful. The trick is plenty of sauce when you make the kebabs. Thankyou for this recipe 😊

Wow! I hope as really hesitant to make this. My Miss 13 “hates lamb” but with 500g of lamb mince to use up from the butcher, I was going to give it a crack! I used half of the spice qty’s and had used an Italian herb spice mix because that’s all I had. I used ready made Lebanese bread (feeling lazy) and we didn’t toast them in the sandwich toaster. I had tzaziki to use but my teen advised she ‘doesnt Like tzaziki.) I put on hers BBQ sauce ‘ sour cream, veggies and the sliced lamb mince. My Miss 13 inhaled it. Infact, it wasn’t until I asked her to ‘put the lamb in the fridge’ that she realised my swiftly move! She still wants leftovers for lunch tomorrow! Di, you’re an absolute legend-I can’t believe something so easy is soooo tasty! Will be making this in the beef & chicken varieties. Thank you! X

Super tasty! I wrapped mine in two layers of baking paper and turned once half way through cooking. I cooked it for 4hrs on high but would probably try 3.5hr next time. I made my own onion salt using plain salt and onion powder (2:1) and it tasted great!

I tried this for a second time, and this time used 1/2kg each of lamb and beef mince. I also added a healthy teaspoon(s) of Greek Herbs and this made my second attempt much more satisfying than my first. By making a flat loaf this only needed 2 hours high in my Sunbeam 5.5l. All diners had nothing but praise!!

I am going to make these today but with 500g of lamb mince instead of 1kg. Do I need to adjust the cooking time and shall I half the ingredients?

Made these for home date night and they were so good. Cooked the lamb as per recipe but used cooked capsicum, white onion and portobello mushroom as filling with tzatziki dip. Also just heated bread instead of toasting. Lots of leftover lamb to pull from the freezer – delish

Family favourite. I make chicken kebabs as hubby doesn’t like lamb. Nice easy meal and so quick to prepare. 100 times better than any kebab you could buy. So glad I came across this recipe

Thoroughly enjoyed this recipe. Used half lamb half beef mince. Couldn’t find the garlic powder so used 1 1/2 teaspoon of crushed garlic worked fine. Also made 2 small logs as we are little family cooked for 5 hours on low was perfect.

Will never buy takeaway kebabs again! This recipe is just about identical to your favourite gyros meat. Kept it simple with lettuce, onion and tzatziki in wraps. Oh. Em. Gee! 👌🏻😋🌯

I’m not normally a lamb fan but everyone in my house loves this one. It also freezes well to have an easy dinner on hand, I wrap mine in baking paper and foil when I make it.

I used mince beef. As I couldn’t find lamb. Omg!! It was the best! So easy to make.
Had it in wraps with cheese, lettuce, tomato and aloi.

Made these last night but with 500g of beef and 500g lamb. Tasted amazing! I also added Greek spices (master foods) tasted just like from the kebab shop! Even my kids who live on chicken nuggets enjoyed them and they don’t like anything
Rachael Goding
June 11, 2018
We absolutely loved this!!! I didn’t have all the ingredients so I used vegetable stock, garlic powder and salt. I was worried to let it cook while I was out but when I got home it was perfect. It was such a hit with the kids. The next day I made the kids lunch. I sliced the meat and placed it in the sandwich with some tomato sauce, the kids demolished them.

This was a big hit! I used half lamb an half bred mince… I didn’t put mixed herbs in or as much salt as it called for… Still a little salty so will only put the onion salt in next time… Will definitely be making again

I was worried that the meat would fall apart it turned out great was worrying over nothing as I never had a fail yet with any recipes on this site. Enjoyed by us both I had BBQ sauce and Hubby Aioli.

I’m going to make this tomorrow, once I get the meat, (first time making) could someone please advise, I have onion powder in my cupboard. Could I use this or would it be better to get onion salt?. Also would it change the flavour of it.

This has got to be the most easiest and best Souvlaki meat substitute ever. When ever I find lamb mince on special or reduced it’s my go to recipe for the family.
Such a universal dish that I bulk make into loaves and then freeze raw to cook up later if I run out of time.
Once cooked I slice it up fine on my slicer and put into containers for school wraps, salads, sandwiches, pizza toppings and also antipasto platters in a Friday night!
When making wraps I use Tzatiki dip and Avocado dip for quicker and cheaper spread if they are on special.
You can also use other mince if lamb is not available.

I wasn’t sure that this would taste like the kebabs you buy but I was so wrong. It was just delicious and exactly like you buy. Will not need to waste money now I can make my own. Followed the recipe but halved it. Plenty for hubby with heaps left over.

Beef kebabs for dinner. It was a little flavour less. I added more salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce ontop while it was cooking hoping to get the flavour thru. Next time ill play around and add extra things in it. But nothing more salt, pepper and bbq sauce couldn’t help.

made this today ! really quite tasty , i was afraid , using beef mince just from the grocers that it wouldnt come out the same texture , but it was pretty close i think . so my switch up were to use beef instead of lamb , i omitted the salt as the mixed herbs i used and the garlic salt i used (then i used onion powder ) both have salt.. i ended up using Spice Islands brand ‘garlic and herb’ spice mix ( i bought it at costco here inthe usa
Di
April 9, 2018
Hi Angelica😊
You can just substitute onion powder for onion salt no problems.
As for the mixed herbs…they are just dried herbs(masterfood brand) in a jar, in the spice isle usually.
Hope that helps😁
Angelica Lichtner
April 8, 2018
I can’t get hold of onion salt here but onion powder. How much salt shall I put it.
And what is in the mixed herbs? Don’t have it here but I can buy the herbs myself and mix

Julie, most likely onion salt. Minced meat, especially a kilos worth, could absolutely hold 5 teaspoons of salt. Due to the fact that a lot of the salt would cook out with the fat in the mince. Salt also acts as a binding agent, it draws the proteins in the meat together. I’m trying a similar recipe tonight!
Julie Hunter
May 31, 2017
Is it meant to be onion powder instead of onion salt? With the 2teaspoons of salt as well that makes 5 teaspoons of salt in 1 kilo of mince

The whole family loved them. I halved the recipe and it still would have fed 6 people. I did accidentally overcook the meat a little, so next time I can adjust my times.
