Home made gyros with roasted celery and wild garlic remoulade sauce
Take your gyros recipe to the next level!
Gyros can be made at home and can even be diet-friendly. For dinner, I usually enjoy my fitness gyros recipe with eggplant. For a spring lunch this time, I roasted celery instead of potatoes. I had been wanting to try a remoulade sauce for a while, so instead of a Greek salad, I made a mayonnaise-based sauce for it. Wild garlic was in season, so I added a generous amount. Give this combination a try!

Roasted celery:
- Peel and wash the celery, then cut it into 1 cm thick rounds. Slice the rounds into sticks, roughly the shape of French fries. Place the celery sticks on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Toss well to coat. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (392°F) until crispy.
Remoulade sauce:
- Wash the wild garlic thoroughly and pat it dry. Chop it finely, as you would parsley.Also, finely chop the pickles.Prepare a tartar sauce: in a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, and mustard. Drizzle in lemon juice, pickle juice, and liquid sweetener. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well, then taste and adjust the flavors as needed. Finally, fold in the wild garlic and chopped pickles. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours, as it tastes much better after resting.
