Doner kebab

Doner kebab (uk: , us: ; turkish: döner or döner kebap, pronounced [dœˈnæɾ ceˈbap]), also spelled döner kebab, is a popular fast food dish, made of meat cooked on a vertical rotisserie. seasoned meat stacked in the shape of an inverted cone is turned slowly on the rotisserie, next to a vertical cooking element. the operator uses a knife to slice thin shavings from the outer layer of the meat as it cooks. the vertical rotisserie was invented in the 19th-century ottoman empire, and dishes such as the arab shawarma, greek gyros, canadian donair, and mexican al pastor derived from this.doner kebab is a popular german street food due to it being popularized in berlin by turkish immigrants. this has been recognized by the association of turkish doner manufacturers in 2011. nowadays there are more döner kebab stores in berlin than in istanbul.the sliced meat of a doner kebab may be served on a plate with various accompaniments, stuffed into a pita or other type of bread as a sandwich, or wrapped in a thin flatbread such as lavash or yufka, known as a dürüm (literally meaning roll or wrap in turkish). kadir nurman in the early 1970s introduced the sandwich or wrap form, which has become popular around the world as a fast food dish sold by kebab shops, and is often called simply a "kebab". the sandwich generally contains salad or vegetables, which may include tomato, lettuce, cabbage, onion with sumac, fresh or pickled cucumber, or chili, and various types of sauces.

Grouper

Groupers are fish of any of a number of genera in the subfamily epinephelinae of the family serranidae, in the order perciformes. not all serranids are called "groupers"; the family also includes the sea basses. the common name "grouper" is usually given to fish in one of two large genera: epinephelus and mycteroperca. in addition, the species classified in the small genera anyperidon, cromileptes, dermatolepis, graciela, saloptia, and triso are also called "groupers". fish in the genus plectropomus are referred to as "coral groupers". these genera are all classified in the subfamily epiphelinae. however, some of the hamlets (genus alphestes), the hinds (genus cephalopholis), the lyretails (genus variola) and some other small genera (gonioplectrus, niphon, paranthias) are also in this subfamily, and occasional species in other serranid genera have common names involving the word "grouper". nonetheless, the word "grouper" on its own is usually taken as meaning the subfamily epinephelinae.
