A delightful twist on the classic gyro, these Mediterranean Lamb Wraps are flavorful and easy to prepare.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, egg, milk, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, black pepper, oregano, and allspice. Mix until well combined.
Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can make it tough.
Shape the mixture into a loaf and place it on a baking tray. Bake for 45 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 180°F (82°C).
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the loaf is cooked through.
While the lamb is baking, prepare the sauce by grating the cucumber and mixing it with yogurt, finely chopped scallions, salt, white pepper, and dried mint.
Squeeze out excess water from the grated cucumber to prevent the sauce from being too watery.
Warm the pita bread in the oven for a few minutes.
Wrap the pita in foil to keep them soft and warm.
Slice the baked lamb loaf and place it on the warmed pita bread. Add sliced tomatoes and a generous dollop of the sauce.
Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
