- 2. Soak 8-10 wooden skewers in water in advance to prevent burning during cooking process or use metal skewers instead.
- 3. Thread the lamb cubes, peppers, mushrooms and red onion onto the skewers, brush with olive oil and season. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until lightly charred and cooked to your taste.
- 4. To make the Mint and Garlic Yoghurt Dressing, stir together all the ingredients and season to taste. Drizzle a little dressing over each lamb skewer and serve the rest on the side.
