Рецепт Lamb and Vegetable Kebabs with Yogurt Dipping Sauce
It does look nice to have the meat and vegetable on the same skewers – and you can do that if you partially pre-cook the vegetables.
I prefer to do it all on the grill, and, as the different foods have different cooking times, arranging them on the skewers accordingly.
Serve on a bed of Summer Couscous, Minted Sauce on the side.

I got a new laptop….. (just a little one).
All of my photos are horrid, especially the food. It looks awful – bland and washed out.
Now I have to calibrate the monitor – in addition to whipping Windows 8 into line….. I will be the boss of this computer!
I will be.
I will make it behave and do what I want it to do when I want it to do it.
