Ingredients:
500g lamb, cut into 4cm cubes
For the Marinade:
50ml milk
3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, grated
salt and freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
3 tomatoes, halved
3 Cubanelle (or Anaheim) peppers, halved and de-seeded
1 onion, peeled and cut into 8 wedges
Method:
Whisk the marinade ingredients together in a bowl then pour over the lamb pieces and toss to combine. Cover the bowl and set aside for 1 hour to marinade before cooking. Meanwhile soak the skewers (if you're using wooden ones) in a large bowl of cold water.
When the lamb has marinaded thread the lamb pieces onto the skewer (two skewers, typically, equal a single portion) then place the skewers on your pre-heated barbecue (or under the grill) along with the tomato halves, pepper halves and onion wedges. Turn the skewers at regular intervals to ensure even cooking and cook for about 10 to 12 minutes (turn the vegetables half way through as well).
Serve the skewers on top of a pita bread and arrange the vegetables over the meat.
