Yogurt Kebabi (Kebab with yoghurt)

Ingredients

  • 900 gr. mutton meat
  • 3 Pides (Pide is slightly leavened bread, for this dish you may obtain the pides from a Turkish Restaurant)
  • 5 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 2 medium tomatoes(very ripe)
  • Sauce: 500 gr. unflavored natural yoghurt, 1 large tomato, 6 green peppers, 1/2 tablespoon red pepper

Directions

Place pides on a grill and heat both sides gently. After cubing the pides, put them on a preheated plate and top of with 2 1/2 tablespoons of melted butter or margarine. Mix well and set aside. Marinate the cubed meat in onion juice and olive oil. Skewer the meat cubes, leaving 1/2 inch between each meat cube, place skewers 2 inches above moderate coal fire and grill all sides until golden brown for 4-5 minutes. While the kebaps are being grilled, peel and dice the medium tomatoes, put in a pan and cook gently for 2 minutes. Spread the cooked tomato sauce on the pides, beat the yoghurt with a fork and add on top of the tomato sauce. Place the kebab again evenly and decoratively on each plate, top with red pepper and melted butter or margarine.

Slice the tomato and grill very gently while grilling the green peppers well. Top with the grilled tomato and green pepper slices and serve hot.
