1. Kabab

“Kabab” means kebab in Arabic. The selection of ingredients is very particular. Generally, only lean meat from lamb legs and backs are used as raw materials. When making "Kababu", the selected lamb is first brushed with seasoning mixed with refined salt, pepper, ginger, green onion and olive oil. Then cut the meat into four to five centimeter square pieces, put them on a one-meter-long skewer, and put them in a special oven. After the meat turns yellow, it can be taken out of the oven. The roasted "Kababu" is fragrant, tender but not burnt, and has an excellent taste. When eating, it is paired with "Taohina" (a sesame-like table sauce) and local salad made with cucumbers, onions, carrots, and lettuce leaves, which gives it a unique flavor.

2. Pita Bread Aish Baladi

In Arabic, "Aish" means "life". For Egyptians, bread is an essential part of every meal. The most important food is less. It is usually made from whole wheat and white flour, then baked near an open fire, and finally baked into a pita shape. From street stalls, to supermarkets, Aish Baladi is served everywhere in Egypt. Aish Mirahrah is similar to pancakes, but thinner and crispier. Usually available in rural areas. Aish is used to scoop food to make falafel or shawarma (grilled pork or chicken strips). There are many ways to eat pancakes. You can tear off a piece with your hands and eat it with a sauce made of sesame and peanuts. You can also put meat, vegetables, etc. into the pancakes, or eat them without anything.

3. Shishitawok

Chicken pieces skewered on wooden skewers and grilled with tomatoes, onions, green peppers and other vegetables in the middle. It is served on raw parsley and is usually eaten with Arabic flatbread, salad and hummus. The seasoning used is similar to that of kebab, except that kebab uses beef and mutton, while shishtawok uses chicken.

4. Shawarma

Shawarma is a common snack in Cairo. The basic production process is to cut off the barbecue on the shelf and mix it with onions, tomatoes, coriander, etc. Mix and stir-fry, then wrap it in the baked thin pancake and roll it into a long shape. If necessary, you can add tomato sauce and eat it together. It feels a bit like KFC's Mexican Chicken Taco. You can eat it directly in your hand after buying it. It is really the king of convenient and delicious street food. There are many roadside stalls.
