Lamb "gyro" from The Bittman Project by Mark Bittman

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    I used this mini recipe as a reminder of what goes into a traditional lamb gyro. I embellished mine after sautéing slices from a full yellow onion and 1/2 red bell pepper. Spread tablespoons of Cava tzaziki sauce on warmed whole wheat pita and layered that with I/2 cup of arugula, crumbled feta and minced mint leaves, warmed up leftover lamb meat rubbed in Za’atar, topped with the vegetables. Wrapped in foil, looks and tastes like a gyro from local food stand.
