A team prepared 30kg of chicken to make shawarma, following a multi-step process. They sliced the chicken, marinated it, and then cooked it on a large skewer. The team then prepared various toppings, including onions, French fries, cabbage salad, garlic sauce, and cucumbers. They assembled 140 pieces of shawarma, which took 4 hours to complete. After frying the shawarma on a grill, they packed and distributed it to children in need. The homemade shawarma cost $255, significantly cheaper than the $392 it would have cost to order 140 pieces from a store.
