Steps:
- In a large bowl combine pork, onion, salt and pepper. Cover the bowl with a plastic wrap or lid and marinate for 2 hours or overnight*. (See the note 2)
- If you use the wood skewers, make sure to soak them in water for a minimum of 30 minutes before grilling. This will keep them from burning up on the grill.
- Thread the meat, sliced zucchini and tomatoes onto the skewers.
- Preheat the grill to a medium high heat.
- Grill for 15-20 minutes turning from time to time, until Shashlik is brown on the sides and cooked through. (After 15 minutes, remove one piece of Shashlik from the skewer and slice in half. If it's no longer pink in the centre, Shashlik is ready.)
- In a blender or food processor combine all ingredients for the sauce and process until creamy. Serve immediately with Shashlik.

RUSSIAN SHASHLIK RECIPE (Шашлык)
Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the lamb, sliced onions, bay leaves, salt, oil and water. Using your hands, mix them all together set aside in the fridge to marinate overnight. If in a hurry then for minimum 4 hours.
- Thread the meat pieces onto metal skewers, about 6 per skewer, with any fat positioned towards the outside of the skewer.
- Prepare the mangal. Place charcoals in the mangal, and light and allow to burn for about 30 minutes, or until the charcoal is all white. Your mangal is ready.
- Place the skewers on the mangal and cook until the meat is cooked. The length of time is determined by the heat and height from the charcoal. Don't burn your meat! Keep turning the shashlik as it cooks, so it doesn't burn. I like to add hot paprika spice directly on the skewer for a spicy kick.
RUSSIAN/GEORGIAN PORK SHASHLYK
I'd like to say this is a Russian recipe, but it's not really true. Shashlyk, a type of kebabs, came to Russia from the Caucasus, primarily from Georgia. But it's immensely popular all over Russia and is considered by my countrymen to be a quintessential "man's food", meaning, it should be prepared by men, who otherwise cook much less frequently than women do in Russia. As the hero of the Oscar-winning 1980 movie Moscow Does Not Believe In Tears says: "Shashlyk does not take women's hands". This is primarily because shaslyk in Russia is traditionally cooked in "mangals" - wood burning grills - during camps, open air parties, etc., where men dominate all elements of the show, from chopping the wood to cooking the meat. Every household in Russia will have their own recipe for shashlyk. Mine is developed via years of experimentation and is shown to produce good results even if you are not a dominating Russian male :) Shaslyk can be made of any meat, as well as from chicken and fish, but my favorite is pork shashlyk. If prepared correctly, it will produce the most succulent, juicy and tender pieces of meat. It MUST be cooked on a grill and ideally a wood or coal-burning version, as the smoky flavor is a quintessential element of shashlyk's taste. As for the meat, my favorite is fatty country ribs, but center loin roast or tenderloin will work too.

Steps:
- Put all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix thoroughly using your hands. The marinade should cover most of the meat. If it doesn't, add more vinegar and pomegranate juice in a 50/50% proportion.
- Cover and refrigerate for 3-4 hours.
- Thread pieces of meat onto wooden or metal skewers leaving at least 1/2 inch between the pieces. You can also alternate meat with onion rings, cherry tomatoes or other vegetables if you like.
- Grill for 15-20 minutes over hot ashes or charcoal (a gas grill will also produce acceptable results), turning skewers every five minutes and brushing the top with the marinade after each turn. Test for readiness by cutting through the meat - it must be medium-well to well done, very juicy and not overcooked.
- Serve with sliced tomatoes, peppers, raw onion rings, radishes and whole springs of parsley and cilantro.
- You will end up with a lot of leftover sliced onions from the marinade. It's delicious fried on a pan or grilled and may be served as a side for your shashlyk.

GEORGIAN SHASHLYK (CAUCASIAN-STYLE SKEWERED LAMB)
Traditionally made from lamb, but can be made with pork, beef, poultry or sturgeon. The only important thing is that the meat should be fresh and not frozen, and you have to marinate longer if you use chicken. Cook time includes time to marinate. Serve with fresh tomatoes, grilled vegetables, greens, onion, cheese and dry wine.

Steps:
- Marinade: In a large bowl, beat together the grated onion, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper.
- Add the meat and toss it in the marinade to coat it thoroughly, then allow to marinate at room temperature for at least 3 hours, tossing every hour or so to keep the meat moist.
- Light a layer of coals in a charcoal broiler and burn until a white ash appears on the surface, or preheat your kitchen broiler to its highest point.
- Remove the meat from the marinade and string them on 4 long skewers, pressing them firmly together, alternate the lamb with the chunks of onion.
- Broil 4" from the source of the heat, turning the skewers occasionally, until the meat is done to your taste and the onions are brown.
- For rare allow about 10 minutes; well-done (which is more typical of Georgian cooking) will take about 15.
- Slide the meat off onto individual plates and garnish with scallions and lemon.
