Greek gyros (Mediterranean street food)

Ingredients

For the pork

• 600 g pork shoulder, thinly sliced
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 tbsp dried oregano
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp salt
• Juice of 1 lemon

To serve

• 4 pitta breads
• Tzatziki (yogurt + cucumber + garlic + lemon)
• Sliced tomato
• Sliced red onion
• Chips (optional)

Method

1. Mix the pork with all the marinade ingredients. Rest 2 hours minimum.
2. Heat a griddle pan until smoking. Sear the pork strips in batches for 2 minutes per side until charred.
3. Warm the pittas.
4. Spread each pitta with tzatziki.
5. Layer with pork, tomato, red onion and a handful of chips.
6. Roll tightly. Eat standing up — that’s how they do it in Athens.
