Pinch Of Nom Lamb Kebab Food

MINTED LAMB KEBABS | SLIMMING & WEIGHT WATCHERS FRIENDLY

Steps:

• Soak the wooden skewers in cold water for 20 minutes, this will help to stop them burning under the grill.
• In a mixing bowl, add 100g of the yoghurt along with 2 tsp of the mint sauce, cumin, salt and pepper. Mix well.
• Add the diced lamb and mix well. Cover and place in the fridge for 20 minutes to marinate.
• Thread 4 pieces of the lamb onto the skewers, alternating with a piece of green pepper and onion. Repeat until you have filled all 8 skewers.
• Place the skewers onto a baking tray and cook under a grill for 10 minutes, turning over halfway to ensure even cooking.
• While the lamb is cooking, mix 2 tsp of the mint sauce with the remainder of the Greek yoghurt.
• Serve the kebabs garnished with the mint yoghurt, lemon wedges and fresh mint.

DONER KEBAB

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip all the ingredients except the oil into a food processor with a large pinch of salt and lots of ground pepper. Pulse until everything is combined and chopped together. You can also just squish everything together in a bowl but this will give you a looser finish.
• Oil a large sheet of foil, tip the meat mix in the middle and mould to a very thick sausage, roughly the shape of an aubergine. Roll up the foil tightly, twisting up the ends to create a Christmas cracker shape.
• Lay on a shallow roasting tin and roast in the oven for 35-40 mins, turning occasionally, or until a digital cooking thermometer reads 75C when pierced in the middle. Leave the kebab to cool a little, then unwrap the foil. Place back on the tray and brown under the grill or with a blowtorch.
• Place on a board and carve into thin slices. For full doner mode, you can hold the kebab up with a roasting fork or metal skewer and carve. Serve with warm pitta bread and any of the other accompaniments, including our chilli sauce and garlic yogurt sauce.
