This is a Greek street food that is very popular in Australia. In each state you will find it called something different however South Australia seems to be the only one to use the term 'yiros'. It is a popular late-night feast after a big night 'on the grog'. The standard salad ingredients are lettuce, raw onion and tomato topped with a garlic (but not tzatziki) sauce. Tabbouli, cheese and chili sauce are also popular fillings as are chicken, beef and falafels. Which ever meat is used it is cooked by stacking thin slices of marinated meat on a vertical skewer which turns in front of a heat source. The meat is then carved vertically from the skewer so the meat is in very thin shards. This is my version. I have used tzatziki as I have yet to discover the secret of South Aussie garlic sauce! Australian measurements used.

Gyro pitas (AKA souvlaki!) are Greece's most popular fast food. If you've ever tried one (or two or ten) in Greece, you'll know that these wraps with marinated chicken, salad, tzatziki and fries inside are incredibly delicious. But did you know you can make chicken gyros in your oven at home? They're super quick and easy, and they honestly taste just the same as they do in Greece! Perfect either for a tasty midweek meal, or to impress a mini crowd.
George and Kostas “Charlie” Tiglianidis are serious about their gyros. After the brothers closed their family deli, Orchard Cafe, in Norwood, after 15 years, they opened The Feisty Greek in the same strip mall last year. They also consulted with a visiting chef from Greece to fine-tune their gyro marinade. They did away with the carving knives you usually see on the large vertical spit of meat and opted instead for a rotating blade designed to shave pork shoulder into fine shreds. As George Tiglianidis explains, pork — not beef or lamb — is the traditional choice for the Greek version of this dish. French fries are also commonly tucked into this pita wrap, so they decided to do that. too.

I've made tzatziki loads of times, but this is my best recipe yet! The two keys are the roasted garlic, and straining the yogurt for 24 hours to make it like soft cheese. Tzatziki is great with crusty bread, french fries, pita bread, baked potatoes, or with any sort of wrap such as gyros, souvlaki, falafel or kebab.
