| For the Kabob: |
| 1/2 lb. minced lamb or chopped chicken thighs (chop in a food processor) |
| 3 Tbsp. fresh breadcrumbs (make in a food processor or blender or grate by hand) |
| 1 clove garlic, crushed |
| 1 small onion, finely chopped |
| 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh coriander |
| 1 egg beaten |
| salt and pepper |
|
|
| Salsa: |
| 1 small avocado |
| juice of half a lime |
| 1/2 tsp. chili powder |
| 3 tomatoes, chopped - don't need to skin them or chop them finely |
| 1/2 Tbsp. chopped fresh coriander |
| 4 pitas |
Directions:
1. Combine all the ingredients for the kabobs and divide mixture into 4. Shape into sausage shapes around the 4 skewers. If the kabobs are not required immediately chill the skewers of meat until required.
2. Grill or barbecue for about 15- 20 min., turning until brown and cooked through.
3. Meanwhile combine all the ingredients for the salsa, season well. Heat the pita and split length-ways. Fill with salsa and the grilled kabobs.
Note: If you are using wooden skewers soak them in water for at least an hour before hand and this will stop them burning when you grill or barbecue them.
* These are great for barbecues, to take in lunch boxes or even as a quick family meal idea.
