MOORISH PORK KEBABS
We can all stand a little Moorish in our lives. ;-) The original recipe would have been made from lamb or goat. Upon driving the Moors out of Spain in 1492, the free peoples of Spain wanted to reinforce their independence by celebrating the thing their previous overlords forbid, eating pork. It's no coincidence that Spaniards love pork to this day as it is a direct response to their turmoiled past. If you must, use lamb or chicken.

SPANISH PORK SKEWERS
For casual entertaining, the tapas experience translates well to the small home kitchen. One delicious hot tapas classic easily made at home is called pinchos Moruños, or Moorish skewers, essentially small kebabs of pork marinated in Arabic (Moorish) spices and grilled, usually on a hot steel plancha. Because most Muslim Arabs wouldn't eat pork, one presumes the original dish was lamb. It's anyone's guess how it evolved into this ubiquitous tapa selection in Christian Spain. Nevertheless, now it means pork seasoned with garlic, cumin, coriander, pimentón and sometimes oregano. Once skewered, they need only about 5 minutes on a hot griddle.

Steps:
- Thread the pork onto 12 bamboo skewers. Season lightly on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle the skewers with the cumin, coriander, pimentón and oregano. Smash the garlic cloves to a paste with a little salt, mix in the olive oil and drizzle over the meat. Rub the seasoning in with your fingers. The skewers can be refrigerated until ready to cook, up to several hours.
- Place a large cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat until nearly smoking. Cook the skewers about 3 minutes on each side, until nicely browned. Serve hot, with lemon wedges.
