Lamb Gyros
Gyros are a favorite Greek treat in the Northwest- no county fair or community festival would be complete without an authentic Gyro booth! 

Tzatziki Sauce:
2 c plain Greek-style yogurt (look for it in most grocery stores: true Greek-style yogurt works much better than standard yogurt)
1/2 English cucumber, peeled & finely chopped
Salt
4 cloves garlic, chopped or crushed in a garlic press
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp red wine vinegar
5-6 mint leaves, minced
Mix together and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least an hour for the best flavor.

Lamb Loaf:
Mix together in a bowl, using your hands:
2 lbs ground lamb
2 eggs
1 small onion, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic- chopped or crushed in a press
1/2 tsp Marjoram
1 tsp Oregano
1 tsp Basil
1/2 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Rosemary
2 tsp minced fresh mint leaves
Salt & pepper to taste
Form into a loaf shape in a bread pan or casserole dish. Surround with a 1/2inch of water. Bake uncovered 60-75 min @ 325 degrees until it hits 165-170 degrees, internal temperature. Remove from oven, let it rest for 10 min- during this time, the temperature will continue to rise. 

Serve self- assembly style, with the following:
Traditional Greek-style pita bread
Tzatziki sauce
Chopped onioins
Chopped tomatoes
Chopped lettuce
Greek Feta cheese
