- Preparation: 40 min
- Cooking: 5 min
- Makes: 1 serving (340 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: High protein
- Contains: beef, dairy, gluten
Ingredients
- 150 g Beef top round, raw
- 50 g Yogurt, plain
- 4 g Garlic, raw
- 1 g Paprika
- 0.5 g Cumin
- 8 g Olive oil
- 60 g Pita bread

Method
- Slice the beef very thinly against the grain and mix with half the yogurt, the crushed garlic, paprika, cumin, olive oil and salt; marinate at least 30 minutes (or overnight).
- Stack the marinated slices onto a skewer if you like, or simply have them ready to sear.
- Sear the beef in a very hot, dry pan for 1-2 minutes, turning, until well-charred at the edges and cooked through, mimicking a rotisserie's crisp edges.
- Warm the pita bread.
- Fill the pita with the sliced tomato, lettuce and red onion, then pile in the hot beef.
- Drizzle with the rest of the yogurt and serve immediately.
