Mmmmm ... :)


Do as above but cut said peppers into half.
Add slices of tomato on top of chosen cheese, sprinkle with a few few herbs of your choice and a dash of extra virgin oil.
BBQ as instructed. Delicious :)

IMHO cooking it slowly is much more important that marinating or dousing with beer, etc.

I like to get the charcoal just right, salt the meat a few times during cooking and serve. Keep a close eye on the height of the skewers above the charcoal and the speed of the motor so it cooks perfectly.

Also, if you alternate lamb and pork on the skewer the pork takes up the taste of the lamb.

I agree with both these recipes, but with a twist. Instead of peppers, and cheese, use lamb :wink: :lol:

I will, but no good for veggies! :roll: Do I have to pre-cook the lamb or just use very thin slivers? Ta.

my Dad makes a mean souvla. The problem is that you have to wait 2 and a half hours for it to cook to perfection, but when it does, it melts in your mouth...bring on the souvla!!
