Gyros is an iconic Greek street food, where slices of marinated pork are roasted on a vertical spit, shaved off, and served in warm pita with vegetables and tzatziki sauce. The name comes from the Greek word meaning 'turn' - from the rotating spit from which the meat is shaved. In the homemade version, a marinade of yogurt, oregano, and paprika is used for thin slices of meat fried in a pan. The characteristic flavor of gyros comes from the combination of aromatic spices, juicy meat, and refreshing tzatziki.

Prepare the marinade: mix yogurt, half of the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, paprika, and cumin.
Slice the pork neck into thin slices (about 5mm). Mix with the marinade and set aside for at least 4 hours.
Prepare tzatziki: grate the cucumber, squeeze out the water. Mix 150g of yogurt with the cucumber, garlic, and olive oil.
Heat a pan over high heat. Sear the meat in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side.
Chop the tomatoes and onion. Prepare the fries in your favorite way.
Heat the pita on a dry skillet.
On each plate, arrange the meat, vegetables, and fries. Drizzle generously with tzatziki.
Roll tightly and serve immediately. You can also serve it on a plate with pita on the side.
Gyros is one of the most popular street foods in Greece, and its history dates back to ancient times when similar dishes were prepared with meat roasted on a spit.
Gyros is best served on warm plates, with fresh vegetables and fries. You can garnish the dish with fresh herbs, such as parsley. Serve with a cold drink to balance the flavor of the spices.
Leftover gyros is best stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator, where it will stay fresh for 2-3 days. To reheat, use a skillet over low heat to prevent the meat from drying out.
