No added oil does not mean the meat contains no fat. Fat already in the lamb and beef can render into the pan as the kebab cooks; draining that rendered fat after cooking can make the serving less greasy.

Use a clean nonstick or well-seasoned pan and let it heat before adding the kebab. Leave space between pieces and wait until the underside has browned before turning; moving them too soon can make them stick or break apart.

Yes. Break or slice the cooked kebab and tuck it into warm pita or flatbread with salad, tomato, and yogurt sauce. Add the sauce just before serving so the bread does not become soggy.
