Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Pour olive oil into a large skillet, toss with diced onion, season with salt and crushed red pepper. Heat to medium-high heat and sauté the onion for 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another 2-4 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool.
In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, cooled onion mixture, oregano, dill, mint, lemon zest, and 1/2 to 3/4 cup water. Sprinkle with salt and mix well. Form a small "test patty." Fry it and taste for seasoning.

Preheat the grill.

Form the ground meat into 4 equal-sized patties and sprinkle with salt. Grill the patties to your desired doneness, 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove the patties from the grill and let them rest for 3-4 minutes.
Cut the pitas in half. Spread each half with a generous amount of tzatziki and feta cheese. Top each half with a patty, then top with tomatoes, sliced onion, and spinach. Top with the other pita half.

Tzatziki pasta with feta cheese: Mix yogurt, feta, vinegar, garlic, mint, dill, and cucumbers. Season with salt. Let stand at room temperature for at least an hour before serving.
