Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut 2 large potatoes into thin fries, toss with 2 tbsp olive oil and 1/2 tsp salt, spread on a baking sheet.
Step 2
Bake fries for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy on the outside.
Step 3
While fries bake, grate 1/2 cucumber, squeeze out excess water, and mix with 1 cup Greek yogurt, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp lemon juice, and 1/2 tsp salt.
Step 4
Warm 4 pita breads in the oven or a dry skillet for 2-3 minutes until soft and pliable.
Step 5
Stuff each pita with a generous portion of fries and drizzle with tzatziki. Serve immediately.

Optional: add chopped fresh dill or a pinch of paprika to the tzatziki for extra flavor.
