    | 1. Combine wine, oil, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper. | 2. Cut steak across the grain into slices as thin as possible. | 3. I use the Chinese trick of putting the meat in the freezer and partially freeze so that it will slice easier. | 4. Pour wine marinade over meat strips, refrigerate and marinate for at least 1 hour. | 5. Drain strips. | 6. Add butter or margarine to saute' pan. | 7. Add meat, in two batches, and saute' until brown on both sides. | 8. Remove to serving platter and keep warm. | 9. Wrap pitas in damp paper towels and microwave until very warm. | 10. Open one end of each pita to make pocket. | 11. Set out lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and yogurt. | 12. Let each person make his own. | 13. Tips: If you are lucky enough to have a Middle Eastern food store around,ask them for Lebne (pronounced"leeb nee") and use in place of the drained yogurt. | 14. It is much richer and creamier. | 15. Or make your own Tzatziki (cucumber, garlic, yogurt dip). | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
