Jackfruit Gyros
‘I first had gyros years ago: it was on Santorini after a very boozy night out. It was greasy and salty and oh-so-very-moreish. This is the stuff of post-pub desire. Vegan food does not have to be holier than thou. Thing is, these gyros feel naughty, but are full of actually pretty good stuff (notwithstanding the chips!).’
