Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef with grated onion, minced garlic, gluten-free breadcrumbs, salt, black pepper, coriander, cumin, smoked paprika, dried oregano, and cayenne pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Form the beef mixture into a loaf shape, approximately 2 inches thick, and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 50-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) and the meat is evenly browned.
While the beef is baking, prepare the garlic sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together plain yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and garlic powder until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Once the beef is cooked, let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing it thinly into strips.
To assemble the donair, place slices of the beef on a gluten-free pita or flatbread wrap. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomato, sliced cucumber, and sliced red onion.
Drizzle a generous amount of garlic sauce over the top.
Fold the wrap around the filling and serve immediately. Enjoy your gluten-free beef donair!
