Tips on how to make Gyros / Shawarma / Döner at home? Bonus point if it doesn’t fall apart immediately.
Marinade the meat, compress it, grill it.... That's really it, it's very easy, that's why it came into being.
i made some yesterday. had only one piece of chicken so couldn't stack-compress-cut so i cut the chicken in small 3mm wide bits before marinating it for 24hrs and frying in a pan with a bit of olive oil. made the pita bread in the same pan afterwards. it was very good
