o begin with, letโs clarify something for those who arenโt familiar with the world of shawarmas. The distinction between the Greek gyros and the Turkish doner isnโt just in the nameโitโs also in the concept.
The Turkish shawarma is similar to the Israeli one, while in Greek gyros tzatziki replaces the Humus/Tahini.
Recently, I had the pleasure of dining at Goodness, where I tried their vegan gyros. I must say, it was an absolute delight.
So, hereโs the Goodness dish in a homemade version.
Enjoy, and let me know how it turned out ๐โฃ
