Gyros Sauce

For a delightful Gyros experience, it’s essential to prepare the perfect sauce. Here’s how:

Combine lamb with all the spices: In a mixing bowl, blend ground lamb with garlic, lemon juice, basil, marjoram, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, and parsley. Ensure the spices coat the lamb thoroughly.
Cook the lamb mixture: Place the spiced lamb mixture in a skillet and cook over medium heat. Stir constantly until the meat is beautifully browned.
Drain off excess drippings: To maintain the perfect balance, drain any excess drippings from the cooked lamb.
Prepare the Gyros Sauce: While keeping the meat warm, whip up the Gyros Sauce by mixing sour cream, diced cucumber, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt. This sauce adds a creamy and tangy layer to your Gyros.

Assembling the Gyros

Warm the Pita bread: Butter one side of Pita bread and warm it in the oven. The buttery warmth adds a delightful touch.
Create a Gyros masterpiece: Remove the Pita bread from the oven and assemble your Gyros like a soft taco shell. Fill it generously with the spiced lamb mixture, fresh tomatoes, onions, and a drizzle of the Gyros Sauce.
Serve immediately: The key to savoring the Gyros at its best is to serve it immediately. Enjoy the burst of flavors and textures!
