Servings: 4

1/2 Cucumber
2 Garlic cloves
250 g Low-fat curd
150 g Greek cream yoghurt (10 % fat)
50 g Whipped cream
7-10 Tbsp Salt
7-10 Tbsp Pepper

Directions

1
Clean, wash and roughly grate the cucumber. Peel garlic and chop finely. Stir quark, yoghurt and cream until smooth. Stir in grated cucumber and garlic and season with salt and pepper.
2
Stir in olive oil. Chill the tzatziki. Wash and peel the cucumbers, cut them in half lengthwise and scrape out the seeds with a tablespoon. Cut the cucumbers into pieces. Clean, wash and cut the peppers into fine strips.
3
Peel the onion, cut 1/4 into slices, dice the rest. Heat the oil in a large pan and fry the gyros meat thoroughly while turning. Add braised cucumbers, diced onion and paprika and fry while turning.
4
Then braise for 8-10 minutes. Meanwhile, wash the marjoram, shake dry and, except for a few stalks for garnishing, pluck leaves from the stalks. Mix the leaves under the gyros. Season again with salt and pepper.
5
Arrange braised cucumber gyros pan with onion wedges and some tzatziki on plates. Garnish with marjoram. Flat bread tastes good with it.
