Deep fried eggs: Triple the amount of butter or olive oil normal for a fried egg; halfway through frying it (medium-low heat), tilt the pan to pool the oil/butter and the egg on one side, continually spooning the hot oil/butter over the top for a minute or two depending on preference. ---

Meat Gyro with Tzatziki Sauce Yield: 6 to 8 servings Level: Intermediate Ingredients 1 medium onion, finely chopped or shredded 2 pounds ground lamb 1 tablespoon finely minced garlic 1 tablespoon dried marjoram 1 tablespoon dried ground rosemary 2 teaspoons kosher salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper Tzatziki Sauce, recipe follows Tzatziki Sauce: 16 ounces plain yogurt 1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded, and finely chopped Pinch kosher salt 4 cloves garlic, finely minced 1 tablespoon olive oil 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar 5 to 6 mint leaves, finely minced ADD CHECKED ITEMS TO GROCERY LIST Directions Process the onion in a food processor for 10 to 15 seconds and turn out into the center of a tea towel. Gather up the ends of the towel and squeeze until almost all of the juice is removed. Discard juice. Return the onion to the food processor and add the lamb, garlic, marjoram, rosemary, salt, and pepper and process until it is a fine paste, approximately 1 minute. Stop the processor as needed to scrape down sides of bowl. To cook in the oven as a meatloaf, proceed as follows: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Place the mixture into a loaf pan, making sure to press into the sides of the pan. Place the loaf pan into a water bath and bake for 60 to 75 minutes or until the mixture reaches 165 to 170 degrees F. Remove from the oven and drain off any fat. Place the loaf pan on a cooling rack and place a brick wrapped in aluminum foil directly on the surface of the meat and allow to sit for 15 to 20 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 175 degrees F. Slice and serve on pita bread with tzatziki sauce, chopped onion, tomatoes and feta cheese. To cook on a rotisserie, proceed as follows: Form the meat mixture into a loaf shape and place on top of 2 overlapping pieces of plastic wrap that are at least 18 inches long. Roll the mixture in the plastic wrap tightly, making sure to remove any air pockets. Once the meat is completely rolled in the wrap, twist the ends of the plastic wrap until the surface of the wrap is tight. Store in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to overnight, to allow the mixture to firm up. Preheat the grill to high. Place the meat onto the rotisserie skewer. Place a double-thick piece of aluminum foil folded into a tray directly under the meat to catch any drippings. Cook on high for 15 minutes. Decrease the heat to medium and continue to cook for another 20 to 30 minutes or until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 165 degrees F. Turn off the heat and allow to continue to spin for another 10 to 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 175 degrees. Slice and serve on pita bread with tzatziki sauce, chopped onion, tomatoes, and feta cheese. Tzatziki Sauce: Place the yogurt in a tea towel, gather up the edges, suspend over a bowl, and drain for 2 hours in the refrigerator. Place the chopped cucumber in a tea towel and squeeze to remove the liquid; discard liquid. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the drained yogurt, cucumber, salt, garlic, olive oil, vinegar, and mint. Serve as a sauce for gyros. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to a week. Yield: 1 1/2 cups ---

What real problem is this dunce, anyway? He’s never had an ounce of credibility, no one actually has legit discussions with him, because everyone knows he’s just a sad sack of shit. He’s not one of the five I’d ban if I was the All Powerful MB Dictator. He’d be on the list of others not meeting the top five threshold but definitely would get the boot when I got around to him. I think he just hasn’t been here long enough to make an accurate determination. I don’t ask for much. ☹ [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/stupid-islam-news-of-the-day/784030.md?page=2)
