Shallots

Preparation:
Get your pestle and mortar. Put your cumin, coriander & white pepper in there and bash them until they are bruised and battered. Good anger management.
You can add chilli flakes if you want.
Put the meat in a bowl. Put the rub that you just made onto the meat. Add the olive oil and rub the meat.
Leave for an hour to marinate.
Cut the pepper into squares. I used a mix of red and green.

Light up the barbie
Start putting the meat and vegetables on the skewers. I usually start with an onion.
You could start with a piece of pepper.
The sequence I use is Onion- Meat - Pepper -Meat- Pepper- Meat- Pepper- Meat- Onion. That makes it enough for skewer per person.
Once you are ready get them on the BBQ.
Cook them to your taste. Enjoy.

Olive, Sun-dried Tomato & Coriander Bread
Ingredients:
- 500g bread flour
- 15g or a teaspoon of salt
- 55ml olive oil
- 20g fresh yeast
- 275ml water
- 180g black Greek olives, pitted and chopped
- 60g sun-dried tomatoes
- 20g Coriander seeds toasted and crushed
Preparation:
Stage 1:
- Mix all ingredients, apart from the olives, tomatoes & crushed coriander seeds, in a large bowl. Try not to put the yeast in direct contact with the salt when they are first added to the bowl.
- Knead well with your hands and knuckles until the dough is elastic, smooth and shiny. Cover with a piece of cling film and leave to rise for 1 hour. Somewhere sunny helps.
Stage 2:
- Divide the dough into two and into each add half of the olives, sun-dried tomatoes and coriander seeds. Add more flour if needed and knead again till you have the right consistency.
- Mould both the doughs into rough round shapes and press firmly down. Sprinkle white flour lightly over the top and mark them with a cross
- Place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper (silicone paper) and prove for 1 hour in a warm place.
- Bake at 220C/425F/Gas 7 for 30 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack.
