A chef has designed the world's most expensive kebab, worth £750.
Named the 'King of Kebabs', it contains champagne-infused mint and cucumber yoghurt, edible gold leaf garnish and milk-fed lamb from the Pyrenees.
The kebab also includes Coeur de Boeuf tomatoes, barrel-aged feta cheese and a cress and lettuce salad, while the world's most costly chilli was used to make the chilli sauce.
All of this is wrapped in saffron-infused flatbread.
The dish was prepared to celebrate the launch of The Great Food Truck Race on the Food Network channel in the UK. The American reality series sees several food trucks competing against each other in a bid to make as much money as they can from food they cook and sell.
Andy Bates, the chef behind the kebab, said: "It took a fair bit of time to source the best possible ingredients to ensure that this kebab was the most exclusive one out there, but I loved every minute."
The 'King of Kebabs' is not available for the general public to buy.
