Greek night, Pork Souvlaki , Lemon Rice, Couscous Greek Salad, added grilled Shrimp
Had a pork loin roast , so chopped up in 1" cubes skewered them up ( these bamboo skewers are 12" long ) and into my marinate over night ( 18 hours )
Lemon juice, Oregano, oil, water and garlic, salt and pepper.
I like my Donair sauce better then Tzatziki, so made a small batch of that. There is a trick to it , mix all ingredients than stir from the bottom and get the mixture rolling then quickly add the vinegar, and stop stirring and bring the spoon to the top. It sets right away. Just check the 3 pictures.
Made up the lemon rice , very nice flavour of the lemon and onions in the long grain rice
( i boil my rice with Turmeric and salt and sugar, the Turmeric gives it the nice yellow colour )
Kept it in the Q to stay warm
Made up the Couscous Greek salad, ( I had no Feta, and I do not care for it ) mozza cheese, leaf lettuce, cherry tomatoes, red onion, diced tangerine, diced Kiwi, cukes , gr. peppers, oil, oregano, lemon juice, carrot ribbons, and couscous
So 15 minutes before supper is ready , throw the souvlaki on the hot grill, then throw on the shrimp ( these had nothing to do with the Greek meal, but Mona's mom said she was not sure about the Souvlaki, It was all good once she tried one. just on her plate not wrapped in the pita, ha ha . But they all ate the shrimp also.
Shrimp did not take long so removed and wrapped to keep warm, Pork doing good, every once in a while I would shake on lemon juice, the Q flared up real nice
looking good, and smell just out of this world, I don't know why I wait so long to do these every time
All ready so time to set up the countertop and ring the supper bell. . And Stand back
Set up so they can make their own Souvlaki wraps.
I was told there was no sauce for the shrimp, I said I not eatting any, dirty look my way. So made up a seafood sauce for the shrimp, That was close, lol
Fixins for the souvlaki, diced tomato, and onions and chopped parsley, and my Donair sauce, and pita bread, was going to make some but Mona just bought a pack for her lunch, I will replace.
Here is mine with the works, and asked Mona to hold for a close up for my Southern friends.
Well we did not even get to dessert as every one was pretty full.
And there is a little Greek meal for us on this Labour Day Monday
Hope you enjoyed and made it to the end.
Thanks for looking and hope everyone's Long Weekend was a good one
