Although gyros is considered a Greek dish, a few traditional Italian ingredients won't ruin it, but rather infuse it with a new and interesting flavor. Rub sweet Italian sausage with cumin and oregano, fry until nicely browned, and serve on flatbread with lettuce, tomatoes, and a spicy yogurt sauce. Thanks to the sausages, preparation won't take much time.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Heat a cast iron grill pan or grill surface over medium-high heat.
- Slice the sausages lengthwise and open them like a book. Remove the rind and press the sausages flat, about 0.5 cm thick. Combine the cumin and oregano in a small bowl. Rub the cut sides of the sausages with the spice mixture. Brush a hot skillet with oil and add the sausages, seasoned side down. Cook on each side until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes per side.
- In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes and their juices with the lettuce leaves. In another bowl, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, harissa, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt until smooth.
- Fry each flatbread in a dry frying pan for about 30 seconds on each side. Spread a little yogurt sauce on the flatbreads and top with the tomato-lettuce salad and sausage. Serve with the remaining sauce.
