Spiced Lamb Kebabs
- 800 g lean lamb, cubed
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- fresh ground black pepper, to taste
- sea salt, to taste (optional)
- dried rosemary, to taste if you are using wooden skewers instead of rosemary branches (optional)
- sage, to taste (optional)
- 2 onions, diced large
- 1 sweet green peppers or 1 red sweet bell pepper, diced large
- 8 thick rosemary branches soaking in water (to be used as the skewers)
- 4 cups cooked couscous
- Combine lamb, lemon juice, garlic, pepper and ea ssalt (if using) in a bowl and refrigerate for 3 hours.
- Sprinkle lamb with rosemary and sage (if using) and thread lamb, alternating with onion and bell pepper onto the rosemary branches (or wooden skewers).
- Heat grill and cook the skewers on both sides for 3-4 minutes or until meat is cooked to your liking.
- Let rest for 4 minutes then serve with couscous and yoghurt and dill sauce.
- The recipe for this is in Michelle Trute's first book which is out of print, My recommendation is to combine yoghurt with dill and perhaps include chopped green onions.
- She'd undoutedly recommend low-fat natural yoghurt.
- I wouldn't be able to resist using Greek yoghurt.
- NOTE: To make your couscous more flavoursome, cook it in stock, and if you want it to be super-healthy, use a stock such as my Recipe #135453.
