King Charles told kebab ‘secret’ before cracking joke on visit to takeaway shop

King Charles surprised many when he gave his "secret" to a great kebab, before cracking a joke during a visit to a takeaway as part of his efforts to show support to earthquake victims.

The monarch met volunteers from the UK's Turkish community sending aid to their homeland, and expressed how "deeply sorry" he was following the devastating earthquake.

While in Hounslow visiting a charity to aid the victims, he visited a kebab restaurant and takeaway co-owned by one of the senior members of the organisation.

And despite the doom and gloom surrounding the circumstances, the King was able to bring a smile to a few faces – and even a laugh, The Mirror reports.

When he asked what meats were cooking, he was told lamb and chicken doner kebabs.

And according to The Telegraph, he then revealed that the "secret" to a good kebab is that "it’s all in the sauce".

He also asked the owner about his "secret ingredient" and cheekily pointed at the press covering the event and said with a laugh: "They probably will have a kebab."

Earlier, Umit Yalcin, Turkey’s ambassador to the UK, joined the head of state when he visited a makeshift depot organised by the West London Turkish Volunteers based in Hounslow.

The diplomat said about the King: “He said he was deeply sorry, deeply sad, and he will pray for Turkey, for Syria and the people under that devastating earthquake."

The 7.8 magnitude earthquake and a later 7.5 quake, which both struck on February 6, have claimed the lives of more than 35,000 people in south-eastern Turkey and Syria, with the death toll expected to rise as buildings are finally cleared.

The natural disaster reduced thousands of homes and buildings to rubble as people slept, with scenes of the rescue effort reported by news channels across the globe.
