Perfectly moist and crispy succulent beef (Lamb is more common followed by pork) souvlaki skewers. Souvlaki is one of the most popular street foods in Greece and for good reason! Juicy and well seasoned meat garnished with cooling tzatziki sauce, served or wrapped in a delicious crispy and fluffy pita. For this traditional souvlaki recipe, the meat is first marinated to soak up all the wonderful Mediterranean flavours and then grilled, to get all crunchy, nicely coloured and juicy. Select some good quality beef and season with a selection of Greek spices like oregano and fresh thyme, coat with extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice and flavour with garlic and chopped onions. Marinading your souvlaki in the fridge for at least 4 hours will allow the aromas to infuse the meat and give it the desired flavours. Of course the best option is to grill the souvlaki (skewers) on a char-coal barbecue, to get them all crispy and smokey. However they also work great on a grill pan or in the oven, if you don’t have the time or space for a proper barbecue. As part of the HOW TO COOK GREAT NETWORK -
