Ingredients:  
4 burrito-size flour tortillas, halved
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper
1 pound pork loin, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
2 onions, cut lengthwise into 8 wedges each
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 cup plain Greek-style yogurt
3 tablespoons chopped mint
1/2 English cucumber, grated

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat a grill to medium- high. Brush the tortillas with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Toast on the grill until browned, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl, toss the pork and onions with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil and season with the oregano, salt and pepper; thread onto 4 skewers. Meanwhile, on a cutting board and using the flat side of a knife, mash the garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt into a paste. Transfer to a small bowl and whisk in the yogurt, mint, remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Press the cucumber in a sieve to remove excess liquid, and then stir the cucumber into the yogurt mixture. Grill the skewers, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with the tzatziki and tortillas. Serves 4.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Season the tortillas with dried oregano after brushing with extra-virgin olive oil. Add boiled new potatoes, cherry tomatoes or zucchini chunks to the skewers before grilling. Use any leftover tzatziki as a burger condiment.
