Next, add the shawarma spices and soy sauce and let the mixture cook for another 5 minutes over low heat so the flavors can infuse.
Meanwhile, toast the pita breads in a toaster or heat them according to the instructions on the packaging.
Slice the cucumber thinly and finely chop the dill and mint. Make the garlic sauce by mixing the Greek yogurt with 1 tablespoon of water, the pressed garlic, and the finely chopped dill. Stir everything together well.
