Rick Stein serves up pork souvlaki with oregano, a Greek style kebab on Rick Stein: From Venice to Istanbul.
Souvlaki is a popular Greek fast food consisting of small pieces of meat and sometimes vegetables grilled on a skewer.
Rick says about his pork souvlake: “This recipe is my take on the kontosouvli, a souvlaki marinated in oregano and chilli. Kontosouvli is best known from Cyprus and is usually described as a souvlaki made with larger marinated pieces of pork.”
The ingredients are: 400g pork shoulder, cut into 3cm cubes.
For the marinade: 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tsp dried oregano, ½ tsp ground cumin, ½ tsp cayenne pepper, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 small garlic clove, grated and ½ tsp salt.
