| Run the onion in a food processor for about 15 seconds. Place the onion in the center of a kitchen towel and squeeze out the juice and return to the food processor. Add the meat, garlic, spices, salt and pepper to the onion, and process. Do so until it looks like a fine paste, about a minute. Place the mixture in a loaf pan and press evenly. Bake in a water bath (place loaf pan inside another pan filled with water) at 325°F (165°C) for about an hour or more until temperature reaches 165-170°F (75°C.) Remove from the oven, drain fat, and place on a cooling rack. Cover meat with aluminum foil and a heavy weight (Brick or heavy lid) for at least 15 minutes until internal temperature is 175°F (79°C) . Pour off any grease that has formed in the pan. Place meat on a cutting board and slice as thinly as possible with an electric knife (using anything else would be much more difficult.) Add a few slices to a nonstick frying pan (very little or no oil) and heat gently until the meat browns a little. In another pan or microwave, heat the pita bread. Finally, place the meat on one half of the pita, topped with tzatziki sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, and onion. You could also put a little Greek dressing on the tomatoes too (extra virgin olive oil, vinegar, salt, oregano.) Serve Homemade Greek Gyros with rice pilaf or a Greek salad, and enjoy! | |
| You can freeze the meat immediately after slicing and then thaw/reheat when you want to use it. | |
