| 1. To make gyro "meat" cut tempeh into thin strips 1/2 - 1.5 cm in thickness works well. | 2. Next make tempeh marinade with all ingredients listed under "Gyro Tempeh". | 3. Pour the marinade over the tempeh, make sure all surfaces are covered and place in fridge to marinate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. | 4. Next, make Tzatziki- combine all ingredients listed under Tzatziki. Stir well and also place in fridge to sit for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. | 5. When you are ready to eat, set the Tzatziki out to warm slightly while you cook the tempeh. | 6. Heat a large skillet with 3-4 tbsp olive oil and heat over medium, once heated place tempeh strips in and let them cook until each side is golden brown. | 7. Remove tempeh from pan, and one at a time heat the pitas over medium heat until warmed on each side. | 8. Then layer your gyro (pita, tzatziki and tempeh) as you choose with lettuce, and/or tomato if you like. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
