सामग्री

1 pound ground beef

1 teaspoon each dried oregano, ground thyme, ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

4 pitas

Optional toppings: lettuce, sliced tomato, sliced cucumber, sliced red onion, fresh dill and feta cheese

3/4 cup greek yogurt

3/4 cup grated cucumber ((I like to use an English cucumber))

2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped

1/2 tablespoon lemon juice

2 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled

निर्देश

Add the ground beef to a skillet over medium-high heat and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Add the seasonings and 1/2 cup of water. Simmer over medium heat until the sauce has thickened around the meat, about 5 minutes.

While the beef cooks, make the Tzatziki sauce. Start by squeezing the excessive liquid out of the grated cucumber, discarding the liquid. In a small bowl, mix the grated cucumber with the remaining ingredients.

To assemble a gyro, layer a pita with lettuce, tomato, cucumber, onion, and ground beef, then finish with tzatziki sauce, fresh dill and feta cheese.
