How to Make Pasta with Gyros

Cook the tagliatelle in well-salted water according to package instructions. Reserve a small cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain.

Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the gyros meat and cook until golden and slightly crispy. Remove the meat from the pan and set aside. How to make gyros meat READ MORE

In the same pan, add the red onion and cook until soft. Add the garlic and sauté briefly until fragrant. Pour in the cream and let it simmer gently for 2–3 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.

Add the cooked tagliatelle to the sauce along with a small splash of pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce. Return the gyros meat to the pan and toss gently until everything is well coated. Finish by folding in the crumbled feta just before serving.
