Prymat - Kebab-Gyros Seasoning with Dried Herbs and Spices, 30g

Product Information

Gyro seasoning is a magical blend of herbs and spices that bring the authentic flavors of Greece to your dishes. With a mix of dried herbs and spices, like oregano (of course!), paprika, garlic powder and cumin, it copies the distinct and very delicious taste found in traditional gyro meat. Greek lemon potatoes! Just trust me and make them. I’ve made them tens (if not hundreds) of times, and they never disappoint. To assemble, scoop about 1/3 cup of the meat mixture onto a pita or flabread, add some chopped red cabbage, tomatoes and onions, and spoon over some tzatziki sauce.

Yes. If you’d like to store the gyro marinade for an extended period or want to make a larger batch, an alternative option is to freeze it in portions. Transfer it to freezer-safe containers or freezer bags, leaving some room for expansion, and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw the frozen marinade in the refrigerator overnight before using it. Recipes to serve with gyro meatThere is both overlap and differences between gyros and kebabs – this recipe is a bit of a blend of the two. I call them gyros because that name is more common here. Don’t serve any kind of meat seasoned with this gyro marinade without this 10-minute tsatziki sauce on the side. It’s such an easy, tasty and healthy recipe to have up your sleeve! It’s best to try to use oregano for the reason mentioned above. However, there are ways to subsitute oregano effectively if you don’t have any. In fact, I wrote a whole list of best oregano substitutes if that interests you! Made with just pantry ingredients, so easy to make at the last minute. Perfect for elevating a simple midweek meal!

Lemon juice: This adds aromatic citrus notes to the seasoning blend, and provides a pleasant acidity that helps balance the richness of the meat and other spices. The natural acidity in lemon juice can also help break down proteins, resulting in juicier, more tender gyro meat! Mustard: I like to add this for a little extra depth and complexity of flavor. It can also help to bind the other ingredients together, creating a more uniform coating on the meat. Dijon mustard is a good choice, or go for American or any yellow mustard. How to make gyro seasoning Greek-inspired Burgers: Give your burgers a Greek twist by mixing the dry gyro seasoning into the ground meat. Shape the seasoned meat into patties and grill or pan-fry them to perfection. Pair these juicy burgers with tsatziki sauce, fresh tomato slices, and leafy greens. VariationsFor a creamier and tangier marinade, consider mixing in a few tablespoons of Greek yogurt. It adds a tanginess that complements the other flavors so well. It will also help to keep the meat moist. Add the onions and cook until soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. If the meat is too dry add some more olive oil. Add more Greek Seasoning to taste.
