|     Ohhh, me too!  I've been able to find them lately at alot of pizza
    parlors, too.  Seems like you could experiment with some good, fresh
    pita bread, sliced lamb, onions, and then something to make the sauce. 
    The sauce seems like something made from yogurt and sour cream perhaps.
    
    Yum!

| 2808.3 | Tzatziki recipe | HPSTEK::DHAGGIS | Sun Jan 06 1991 17:07 | 17 | |
|     The white sauce the Greeks put on gyros, is not only for gyros, but it
    is used on soublaki, as well as a dip.
    
    It is known best as tzatziki.
    
    The ingredients are:
    
    Drained yogurt (place plain yogurt into a cheese cloth and leave it
    overnight.
    Crushed fresh garlic (never use garlic powder as a substitute).
    Fine shredded cucumber. Remove seeds, shred it, drain excess water.
    Mix the above ingredients with some salt to taste. Proportion of the
    ingredient can be varied to suit your taste. 
    A started point would be 2 pounds of yogurt, one cucumber, and four
    cloves of garlic.
