Kebab Sauce???

An appeal to all of you wonderful Old Stylers..................

Has any one got an authentic recipe for kebab sauce??? I'm making Lamb kebabs for tea tonight and would love some of the creamy spicy sauce to serve with it. I haven't got the faintest idea as to how I go about making it and I wondered if anyone can point me in the right direction???

Many thanks in advance!!!

    I think this could well be one of those questions which doesn't have a definitive answer as every kebab house I know serves a different sauce, often offering a choice from several ;)

    Can you identify which herbs/spices are used in your favourite one?

  • The ony one I can think of is Sate Sauce? This is based on peanut butter and chilli.

    if it is a creamy sauce why not try

    yoghurt
    mint sauce (I always put these in my Spiced Onions we I make)
    splodge of tomato puree
    some paprika

    I just know it's a salmon pink colour and it's nicely spicy. Possibly has garlic too?? Not much help I know, but I really haven't got a clue how to begin with this!! :D

    I think smokey's got it right; sounds very similar to what we get from the local kebab place.

    The ability of skinny old ladies to carry huge loads is phenomenal. An ant can carry one hundred times its own weight, but there is no known limit to the lifting power of the average tiny eighty-year-old Spanish peasant grandmother.

    If you mean that chilli sauce they put on kebabs I saw them make that in the back of a kebab shop once.

    It was made out of really finely grated raw carrot, a purreed tin of tomatos and purreed chilli.

    I found a recipe once in a magazine for peanut sauce which the Hard Rock Cafe use. It's really easy.

    warm some crunchy peanut butter in a saucepan (about 1/2 a jar)
    then add some sweet chilli sauce
    then add some cream - 1/2 a cup should do but use your judgement
    I also add some lemon juice to give it a bit of tang

    Should have read the 2nd post!!!!
    Not sure what the Kebab shops use.
  • Thanks for all your help, I think though, they'll just end up with sweet chilli sauce instead, but I shall bookmark all suggestions for future use :)
