This is served on a plate, hence its name 'Tál' which means 'plate'. Gyros consist of the kebab meat (sometimes beef/veal) and this one is with the choice of Chicken cooked on a vertical spit. In Hungary, rarely lamb unless you go to an upper class restaurant. They top the flatbread/pita cut into wedges like this. The salad that goes along include onion, tomato, lettuce, cabbage with condiments hot chilli sauce and sour cream+joghurt sauce. The other variation is the sandwich (pita) that is great to eat on the go.

Beijing jianbing (北京煎饼) is a kind of breakfast crepe widely sold in Beijing. Similar but smaller crepe is also sold all over China. The motorized cooking plate speeds up the process for larger crepe. The red sauces are red tofu bean curd sauce and chili sauce. The crispy square is fried dough.-kkfung/youtube

1 tablespoon powdered sugar
1 pinch salt
100 ml white wine
2 egg yolks
5 g fresh yeast
Poppy seeds filling
175 g ground poppy seeds
90 g sugar
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon raisins or other dried fruit
1 tablespoon bread crumbs (I used whole)
90 ml water
lemon zest / orange
vanilla
Walnut filling
150 g ground walnuts
80 g sugar
2 tablespoons breadcrumbs (white)
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon raisins or other dried fruit
125 ml water
peel of lemon / orange
vanilla
Apple filling
375 g apples peeled, grated
2 tablespoons raisins or other dried fruit
1 tablespoon ground nuts
1 tablespoon breadcrumbs (white)
cinnamon
Prune stuffing
1 jar of plum jam thick
Preparation
Dough
Place all ingredients in a bowl and knead until dough is elastic and non-sticky.
Then put it in a bag and refrigerate.
Meanwhile prepare the fillings.
Poppy seeds filling
Place in a saucepan of water, sugar and honey and let it on the stove top, until the sugar has melted.
In a bowl, place the dry ingredients, then pour hot water over them (with sugar and honey) and mix well.
Walnut filling
Follow the same procedure above.
Apple filling
Mix all ingredients.
After making the fillings remove the dough from refrigerator and divide it into 5 equal balls, then spread each on trays of 22 cm diameter cake.
Pierce with a fork three of the stretched round shapes of dough and bake them in round baking pans that were previously coated with oil and sprinkled with flour, for 8 minutes at 180C/360F, until they brown.
After you have baked the three tops, take one of the sheets that was not cooked (raw sheet) and lie it in a 22 cm cake pan, pierce it with a fork, then add the Poppy seeds filling over it and level it.
Over Poppy seeds filling place one of the baked sheets and then, on top, place the Walnut filling and level it.
Over the Walnut filling place 2nd baked sheet, pressing gently, and then, on top, place the plum jam / jam and level it.
Place over the Plum jam the 3rd baked sheet, top it with the apple filling, then level it and, at the end, place over it the second unbaked sheet, then pierce with a fork and put it in the oven preheated to 180C/360F for 50 minutes.
Remove from oven and powder sugar over it.
