This donair recipe is tried and tested for the true donair fan. If you enjoy Halifax donairs, then you'll love this recipe. Use only the finest spices available; they make a huge difference. If you want the smooth texture of meat that you see in an authentic donair shop, you must knead the meat in a steel mixing bowl on a sturdy surface.

Kugeli Comfort Potato Dish
This comfort food favorite has been passed down in my family. I remember getting so excited every time my grandfather would make it for us! Although I loved the way my grandfather made it, I've added a few flavorful ingredients of my own. You'll love the bacon, potatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, and bella mushrooms in a potato bake covered with melted Cheddar cheese. Even extra tasty when served with sour cream! This dish is an excellent side dish at dinner or a wonderful addition to a brunch!
Mexican Coffee Cocktail
This Mexican coffee cocktail is a warming drink with quite a kick. Not to be outdone by the Irish, Mexico has a spiked coffee of its own made with coffee liqueur and tequila.
