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

Product Information

Garlic lover? Don’t be shy to amp up the garlic in the marinade. Add more dried garlic, or some crushed fresh garlic if you like. As already mentioned, you can either mix together only the dry ingredients and store them in your pantry, adding the wet ingredients (so honey, mustard and lemon juice) only when you’re ready to prepare your meal.

Prepare the Tzatziki Sauce (ideally you will have done this ahead of time as it needs to sit in the fridge for at least an hour).Roasted vegetables: Toss your favorite vegetables, such as bell peppers, zucchini, eggplant, and red onion, with plenty of gyro marinade. Pop them in the oven and roast for around 30 minutes at 220C/425F or until tender and slightly caramelized.

Or you can simply add all of the seasoning ingredients, both wet and dry, directly to the meat. I like to use large Ziploc bags for this. Simply seal the bag tightly, then squish and massage so that all the ingredients get well mixed together and completely cover all of the meat. This maroulosalata (Greek lettuce salad) is simple enough not to draw attention away from the star of the show (the delicious marinated meat!) but adds an interesting flavor twist to a simple green salad. For 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. Following on from the above… consider mixing up the Greek seasoning blend (without the ‘wet ingredients) in a larger batch so that you always have some in the pantry on hand!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. Variations 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! Honey: This adds a touch of natural sweetness, as well as a little delicious caramelization to the meat and acting as a glaze, coating the meat and helping to seal in moisture! All in all, it’s worth including! Last week I posted my recipes for Greek Tzatziki Sauce and Greek Seasoning Blend. Now it’s time to combine those two recipes to make a third one! One that you’re going to fall in l.o.v.e. with!

Greek lemon potatoes! Just trust me and make them. I’ve made them tens (if not hundreds) of times, and they never disappoint. There 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.No lemon? No worries! White or red wine vinegar comes to the rescue as a worthy substitute, infusing your marinade with its own zesty acidity. 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. For the best results, if you have time let the meat marinate in the seasoning in the fridge for a few hours or overnight before cooking. Pour the yogurt into a coffee cup. Add the spring onions and garlic power, stir well. Season with salt and pepper (to taste) and set aside).

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! Step 1: Gather all your dried herbs and spices. Carefully measure each ingredient according to this recipe, then whisk until blended. Garlic powder: Substitute with dried onion powder if you don’t have garlic. Or you can use crushed fresh garlic instead, of course! Two options to choose from. Mix together the dry and wet ingredients and use as a gyro marinade for dinner that night. Alternatively, mix together the dry ingredients and store in a jar, then just add the wet ingredients to make a marinade or rub when you’re ready to cook.Consider adding a pinch or two of other common Mediterranean spices. How about ground cinnamon, coriander, or nutmeg for a subtle boost in flavor? Sizzling skewers and kebabs: Create mouth-watering kebabs by threading marinated meat cubes, veggies, or a tasty combo onto skewers. Play around with different herbs to switch up the flavor profile. Consider adding different dried Mediterranean herbs like rosemary, thyme, basil, marjoram, dill, mint or parsley. You may be surprised to see that garlic powder and onion powder are not included in this spice blend. This is because I usually grind fresh onion and garlic with the meat mixture and this seasoning to make gyros. If you don't plan to do this, you can add 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and 1 teaspoon of onion powder to this gyro spice mix.
