About a week ago I got inspired by a photo from @foodfromclaudnine and I had to put some Greek style chicken with gyros spices and home made pita on the menu. Now I took a shortcut with the 'pita' and used my foolproof naan recipe for it. This bread will always end up fluffy and pliable and it was actually perfect for this dish.
Gyros spicemix (enough for 1 kg meat):
• 2 tsp salt • black pepper • 1 tsp chili powder • 2 tsp smoked paprika powder • 2 tsp garlic powder • 1 tsp onions powder • ½ tsp cinnamon • 2 tsp cumin powder • 1 tbsp dried oregano • 3 tsp dried thyme • 1 tsp dried basil •
Naan bread:
• 200 gram white flour • 200 gram whole wheat flour • 300 gram Greek yoghurt • 1 tsp garlic powder • 2 tsp dried oregano • salt and pepper • 1 tbsp water • 15 gram backing powder •
Tzaziki:
• 1 whole grated cucumber • salt and pepper • 400 gram Greek yoghurt • 3 garlic cloves • juice of half a lemon • dried parsley •
For the tzaziki and gyros spicemix I don't need to explain anything I guess. It's just mix and go really. The naan is also a matter of mixing well, resting and making super flat 'tortilla' like patties. Grill in a super hot cast iron skillet until cooked and slightly charred. Put them in between a kitchen towel to keep warm and soft and fluffy.
Stole the food styling from @foodfromclaudnine as well, but when really eating it, it doesn't look this pretty. But hey, who cares 🤣
It was super tasty!
Enjoy!
