Ingredients

• 1 pound Beef and lamb ground mixture
• 1 small Onion
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 large Cucumber
• 1 cup Plain full-fat Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Dill
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 cups Romaine lettuce
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 medium Red onion
• 0.5 cup Feta cheese

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).

Step 2

In a food processor, combine the ground meat, small onion, garlic cloves, ground cumin, dried oregano, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until the mixture is well combined and resembles a paste.

Step 3

Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and press the meat mixture firmly into the pan, flattening the top.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and has an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).

Step 5

While the meat is baking, make the tzatziki sauce: Grate the cucumber and squeeze out excess moisture using a cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine the grated cucumber, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, finely chopped dill, and a pinch of salt. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Step 7

Once the meat is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. Slice the meat into thin strips.

Step 8

Prepare the salad: Chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces, halve the cherry tomatoes, and thinly slice the red onion.

Step 9

To serve, place a portion of romaine lettuce on each plate, top with cherry tomatoes, red onion slices, gyro meat strips, and sprinkle with feta cheese.

Step 10

Serve with a generous dollop of tzatziki sauce and drizzle olive oil over the salad for added flavor.
