Description
Greek gyro preparation involves cooking thinly sliced meat on a vertical spit at high temperatures.
Technical
The high-speed rotation and heat from the spit cause the meat to sear and crisp on the outside, while remaining juicy on the inside. The process typically takes around 30-60 minutes and involves the use of a mixture of spices, herbs, and other seasonings to add flavor to the meat.
