Souvlaki is Greek fast food. It is cooked like a shish kebab - in edible size pieces on individual skewers. Meat cooked this way is sometimes made into a wrap similar to a Gyros, but this isn't common - the meat is usually served with chips, salad and tzatziki on a plate. For the more common take-away wraps see my Gyros recipe.

Preparation

  1. Put the bamboo skewers in water to soak
  2. Cut any fat, gristle or bone off the pork and then chop into cubes approx 3cm in each dimension
  3. Mix all the other ingredients together in a large bowl and stir thoroughly
  4. Place the pork into the mixture in the bowl and ensure well covered
  5. Place lid or cling-film on bowl and fridge for at least 3 hours (or up to 2 দিন)
  6. If using bamboo skewers, soak in cold water for approx 20mins
  7. Remove each pork cube from the bowl and push onto the kebab skewers, approx 5-7 pieces per skewer
  8. Cook on BBQ or grill for approx 15mins, turning frequently, until the meat has gone partially golden-brown
