Method

To Make Slouvakia

1

Put the onion, garlic and oil in a food processor and process until well blended.

2

Pulse in the cumin, coriander, paprika and cinnamon, adding a good seasoning of salt.

Alternatively grate the onion and mix with the ingredients.

4

Cut the lamb into 1.5-2cm size pieces and place in a shallow dish.

5

Pour the onion mixture over the lamb and toss to coat.

6

Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to overnight.

7

Heat the barbecue hot plate to high and brush liberally with oil.

8

Drain any gathering liquid from the lamb.

9

Pile the pieces onto the hot plate.

11

Stuff pieces into warmed pita pockets with lettuce greens and top with cumin-spiked coleslaw.

12

Yoghurt can be served on the side if wished.
