Pita with lamb, Greek salad and tzatziki sauce is a very popular food in Greece. Although the name of this culinary recipe seems incomprehensible, but in fact everything is very simple. Pita is just a flat white unleavened flatbread, we are used to calling such bread the word "pita bread", it may not be the same thing, but it is very similar.
So, first let's prepare the mysterious tzatziki sauce. Take half a cucumber, finely chop it and put it in a blender, add yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, a few mint leaves, a whisper of salt and pepper. Whisk. That's the whole mystery, although the name is unusual. Put the sauce in the refrigerator.
Now let's do the vegetables. Chop mint, cut tomatoes into slices, the remaining half of cucumber, salad leaves, olives. All this is crushed in the usual way, and I think everyone knows how it is done. Put the vegetables in a bowl and add lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of oil.
Now mutton. Cut into pieces, add salt and pepper. Next, put the meat in a frying pan and pour oil over it. We put the frying pan in the oven, where it needs to be baked. Choose the temperature in your oven for baking meat. When the lamb is baked, we will cut it into thin pieces.
Now we take our pitas, they will serve as food and salad dishes. First, they need to be heated in the oven or in the microwave, and then we fill them beautifully with salad and meat. The sauce for this salad is served separately.
