A few years ago I was visiting Europe and it was beautiful. We went to several places but my question is about Berlin Germany. When I went to Berlin Germany I ate something called a “dugen dogner”? I am not sure if I am saying it correctly but it really tasted good.
Can anyone show me the correct way to say this? Also where can I find a recipe to make my own?
wow thanks so the real name is a doner? Do you know what that first word means?
Dugen Doner? because there was different types and I always loved the dugen doner.
I hope I can make my own but it did look kind of complicated like it was a flat bread type and the meat was real good.
Also does anyone know the name of the restaurant where they sell dugen doners? It was very very close to charlies checkpoint in Berlin Germany. I walked in and it was like a us subway but instead of subways it was doners. You tell them what you want them to put in your doner. Maybe if I find the restaurant I can get more information.

Hi there again…I emailed a friend of mine who lives in Berlin and says he isn’t familiar with the phonetic pronunciation “dugen dogner”. It may be helpful to describe what the food looked like as well as how it tasted to something that would be familiar here in the U.S. Also if it was a snack, meal or dessert that way other people can help answer this question.
[edit] looks like you rec’d some helpful answers so you can look up recipes online.
I also wanted to add to your previous question about dog food…that if you are going to switch your chihuahua’s food from one brand to another, it must be done gradually to avoid any digestive upset (e.g. vomiting, diarrhoea). Here are instructions on how to do this to minimize the digestive distress:

as Jane said, you mean Döner ! LECKER!
you can do this easy homemade. get the paprikachilimix at the mexican stores, add piemento and some cumin to the meat (you can try roastbeef, or even meatballs, just make it tasti), heavy joghurt with garlic, green salat, cabbage (with vinegar, salt oil-made) uh ja, and some bread as you find simular

“Döner Kebap”? Love it!!
I’ve read somewhere that one of the turkish words means roasting and the other rotating.
In Germany in some cities they just say “Döner”, in others just “Kebap”.
Or “Dürüm Döner”? There are some sorts of variety, am not really familiar with those
Here’s an english page with pics and infos:

Do you mean “Dürüm Döner”?
It´s like Döner Kebab but with a flat bread (Pide/Pita) to roll up the meat and salat. “Dürüm” (Turkish) means “to roll”.

mactheanimal is right. What you probably mean is a Dürüm Döner.
What you need to make it yourself is quite easy to describe; but I doubt whether you can get the ingredients everywhere. In an original Döner, you use lamb roasted on a rotating spit, and that’s not easy to do when you just want to prepare a small amount. But here’s the replacement I found:
Make some spicy pancakes to replace the original Turkish bread, or if you have a recipe to make Indian “pitta” or “naan”, use that.
Then fry pieces of chicken in a pan, add sliced fresh capsicum (make the pieces the size you like).
While the whole thing fries, cut fresh green salad, tomoatoes, and red cabbage into little pieces. Keep that separate from each other. Make some halved onion rings, if you like.
Get some ready-made garlic sauce ready. (You can prepare one yourself, which would be more like the original. Use fine-cut garlic, fine-cut cucumber [just a bit] and yoghurt. Thin with water if necessary, stir heavily, and let rest in the fridge for at least six hours. Take out one hour before use.)
Cut the hot chicken into small stripes with a sharp knife.
Roll your improvised dürüm into a funnel-like shape and start filling from bottom to top first with some of the green salad, and then continue with the meat, capsicum, red cabbage, onions, add some sauce in between, and so on. When you start reaching the top, add the tomatoes, and top it with some extra sauce.
Wrap a paper napkin and/or some aluminum foil around the bottom, and start eating from the top.
In the original recipe they don’t fry the capsicum with the meat, but I do, as I find it more tasty when a bit fried. I also add some fresh hot chilies, when available. But you can experiment on it.
Hope you like it.
