Ingredients

• 500 grams Ground lamb
• 1 large Onion, finely grated
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Oregano, dried
• 1 teaspoon Cumin, ground
• 1 teaspoon Coriander, ground
• 1 teaspoon Rosemary, dried
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 200 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 120 grams Plain Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 60 milliliters Water
• 1 small Cucumber, sliced
• 1 medium Tomato, sliced
• 0.5 Red onion, thinly sliced
• 50 grams Feta cheese, crumbled
• 120 grams Tzatziki sauce

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground lamb, grated onion, minced garlic, oregano, cumin, coriander, rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 2

Shape the lamb mixture into a loaf shape, then wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Step 3

For the gluten-free flatbreads, in a bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour with baking powder and a pinch of salt.

Step 4

Create a well in the center and add Greek yogurt, olive oil, and water. Mix until dough forms. If it's too sticky, slowly add more flour until manageable.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces and roll each into a thin circle, about 6 inches in diameter.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook each flatbread for 2 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Set aside and keep warm.

Step 7

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Unwrap the lamb loaf and place it on a lined baking pan.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until cooked through, registering at least 70°C (158°F) internally. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes.

Step 9

Slice the cooked lamb thinly.

Step 10

To assemble the gluten-free gyros, place a few slices of lamb on each flatbread. Add cucumber slices, tomato slices, red onion, feta cheese, and a dollop of tzatziki sauce.

Step 11

Wrap the flatbread around the filling and serve immediately.
