Wow Sunshine! - My Recipe for Pork and Fruit Kebabs

Well its fabulous - at last the sun is out, the temperature's up and we can have regular planned barbecues. I must say its been pretty miserable in northern UK this last month or so.

At the weekend I had my parents to stay and took delight in preparing a few barbecue treats for them. Try this one out and your friends and family will know you are a great barbecue cook.

Pork and Fruit Kebabs:
4 boneless pork loin steaks cut into chunks (4 - 6 pieces each steak)
8 ready to eat dried prunes
8 ready to eat dried apricots
Marinade: 3 tbsp orange juice, 1 tbsp Worcester sauce, 2 tbsp olive oil, a pinch of paprika, 1 tsp cumin powder, salt and pepper.

1. Put everything into a bowl and mix well.
2. Cover and leave overnight in the refrigerator.
3. Soak 4 wooden skewers in water to prevent them catching light or use metal skewers.
4. Thread alternating pieces of meat and fruit on the skewers.
5. Cook over the barbecue on a medium heat for 10 - 15 minutes turning regularly.

Serve the fruity kebabs with a cous cous salad or just with some fresh bread and green leaves.

Delicious!!!
