Drawing inspiration from the shaved, roasted meat dishes of Greece, Turkey, and the Middle East—including gyro, kebabs, and shawarma—our veganized version of this satisfying midday or late-night favourite features strips of chewy seitan, lots of crisp vegetables, pillowy bread, and a couple of our favourite kebab-shop sauces.

📝 Ingredients

  • 14.109 oz seitan
  • 1 Tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 tsp chicken spice mix
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened soy yogurt
  • 1 Tbsp tahini
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsp fresh mint leaves
  • 2 Tbsp fresh dill
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp agave syrup
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 Tbsp ketchup
  • 1 Tbsp harissa paste
  • 1 tsp pomegranate molasses
  • 1 Turkish pide bread
  • 1/4 head iceberg lettuce
  • 1 medium tomato
  • 1/4 cucumber
  • 1/4 small red onion
  • 4 pickled pepperoncini peppers

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Thinly slice the seitan.
  2. 2Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the seitan and spice mix, and cook until golden to your liking.
  3. 3Mix the tahini garlic yogurt ingredients in a small bowl.
  4. 4Blend the herby mayo ingredients in a small food processor. Alternatively, finely mince the herbs and mix in with the remaining ingredients.
  5. 5Mix the spicy ketchup ingredients in a small bowl.
  6. 6Optional step: press the bread in a preheated grill pan.
  7. 7Slice the bread open to create a pocket. Smear the herby and hot sauces on each side of the bread, and fill with the seitan and veggies.
  8. 8Serve with a pepperoncini pepper on the side, and drizzle with the tahini garlic sauce. Enjoy!
