Halloumi gyros

For the Halloumi Gyros

1 halloumi 1 tbsp dried herbs and spices (oregano, paprika, garlic powder, cumin) 1 tbsp olive oil 1 tbsp Greek yogurt

For serving

½ red onion ½ cucumber 1 tomato juice of ½ lemon ½ lettuce 2 tbsp talattouri 2 Cypriot pitas

For the halloumi, pat it dry well with kitchen paper. Using a peeler, “shave” it into long strips from top to bottom. If any pieces break, cut them as thinly as possible.

Place the halloumi, yogurt, olive oil and herbs in a bowl. Mix gently so they are evenly coated without breaking up the strips.

Spread the halloumi on a baking tray lined with parchment paper as evenly as possible. Bake at 180°C for 15 minutes.

Remove it from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes to set.

For serving, warm the pitas. Spread talattouri on the base, add lettuce, tomato, cucumber and onion, drizzle with the lemon juice and place a generous amount of the halloumi on top. Serve immediately while warm.
