Lets do GREEK!!!
I love gyro's. They are the best! So below here is an easy way to get what you want without having to go out.
MEAT FILLING
1 pound ground beef
1 pound ground lamb
2 eggs
1/2 cup minced onions
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon ground rosemary
2 teaspoons sea salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
Mix together all of the above ingredients and mold into a loaf and place in a loaf or bread pan. Cook for about an hour at 325 degrees. Please check temperature to make sure that meat is at 165 degrees internally. Drain grease away and remove from pan. Place on a platter and slice in 1/4 inch slices.
SAUCE
Prepare cucumber sauce:
16 ounces sour cream,
1 cucumber shredded,
3-4 mint leaves minced,
pinch of salt and pinch of pepper,
1/2 tablespoon red wine vinegar,
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar,
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic
Mix all ingredients together until creamy and well combined.
For assembly you will also need:
8 heated pita bread pockets
Shredded lettuce,
chopped tomatoes
thinly slice red onion
feta cheese
TO ASSEMBLE:
Grill the pita bread pockets. I do this in a cast iron skillet or on a grill. Place several slices of the meat in the middle of the pita pocket. Top with shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, red onion (I leave this out) and nicely crumbled feta cheese. Drizzle the top with your cucumber sauce and serve.
In the next few weeks I will do over any recipe that you wish to make it a little easier and maybe, just maybe a little cheaper. Just comment and let me know. I will take it as a challenge to do your request proud.
