Ingredients

• 500 grams Beef sirloin, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 4 pieces Pita breads
• 1 medium Red onion, sliced
• 2 medium Tomato, sliced
• 1 medium Cucumber, sliced
• 1 bunch Fresh parsley, chopped
• 200 grams Dairy-free yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Dill, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, cumin, paprika, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper.

Step 2

Add the thinly sliced beef to the bowl and pour the lemon juice over it. Mix everything together until the beef is well coated with the marinade.

Step 3

Cover the bowl and let the beef marinate at room temperature for at least 15 minutes. For better flavor, marinate in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.

Step 4

While the beef is marinating, prepare the dairy-free sauce. In a small bowl, combine the dairy-free yogurt, chopped dill, and apple cider vinegar. Mix well and set aside.

Step 5

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef slices in batches, cooking each side for about 3-4 minutes until they are browned and cooked through.

Step 6

Warm the pita breads either by placing them in a toaster or a hot pan for a few minutes until soft and pliable.

Step 7

To assemble the gyros, spread a generous amount of the dairy-free sauce on each pita bread.

Step 8

Add cooked beef slices, followed by red onion, tomato, cucumber slices, and a sprinkle of chopped parsley.

Step 9

Wrap the pita around the fillings and serve the gyros immediately. Enjoy your dairy-free beef gyros with extra sauce on the side if desired.
