Course: Main

Skill level: medium Serves: 4

4 pork loin medallions or loin steaks, cubed 350 g (12 oz) new potatoes

8 cherry tomatoes, halved

2 large red onions, each cut into 8 pieces

12 mini pitta breads

1 x 200 g pot of tzatziki Large handful of fresh mint, chopped

For the Marinade:

1 tbs sugar

1 tbs salt

½ lemon, juice only

1 tbs dried oregano

1 Mix together all of the ingredients for the marinade in a medium bowl. Add 1 cup of cold water and stir well until everything is dissolved. Submerge the pork loin in the marinade for 10 minutes.

2 Cook the potatoes in a pan of boiling water until soft. Drain the water, halve the potatoes and set aside.

3 When marinated, dry the pork with kitchen paper (discard any surplus marinade) and thread on to skewers. Add one piece of pork, followed by one piece of tomato, then onion. Repeat until you have used 1/8 of the pork. Make 8 skewers in total.

4 Pre-heat the grill to a medium heat and place the skewers on a pan under the grill. Keep turning the skewers until brown all the way round and cooked through.

5 Warm the pittas according to the packet instructions.

6 Mix the tzatziki with the potatoes and spoon on to the plates. Follow with the pittas and the skewers, sprinkle the fresh mint all over and serve.
