Ingredients
59 1/2 oz lamb fillet
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp honey
1 tbsp olive oil
1 clove of garlic
Directions
Cut the meat into 1-inch slices, and put them in an unpunctured
plastic bag. Prepare the marinade by heating for 20 seconds on High
(100% power) in a microwave, or combining over heat on the stove the
lemon juice, honey, oil and garlic, until the honey has melted. Stir
well and cool to room temperature, then pour over the bagged meat and
leave to stand while you make the salsa. Thread the marinated lamb
onto the soaked skewers. Cook on a preheated barbecue or under a
preheated grill, close to the heat, for a short time. The kebabs are
ready when the outside is brown and the inside pink but not red.
Serve two kebabs with an avocade half or with a sliced avocado and
salsa, and slices of your favourite bread.
Servings: 2 servings

The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to trace the history of recipes far back into the distant past, certainly as far back into recorded history as the ancient Egyptians, and possibly even further than that. Interesting though that maybe, in the main part, these early cook books were just simple hieroglyphic recipes for food preparation.
The truth of the matter is, the oldest recipe discovered, according to historians is a series of stone tablets in the Sumerian language describing the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made people feel exhilarated. Moving on, we find a couple of recipe books which date from the 14th Century ; one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. Although the titles sound familiar, these are not about the indian curry that appears on menues today, but rather recipes for the types of meals prepared by the cooks of the rich and wealthy people of those days. During the following few centuries, the upper classes competed to serve the most exotic banquets, and consequentially cooks and their recipe collections were much in demand. Even so, it wasn`t until the nineteenth century that fine cooking and recipe publications really came of age. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated their lives to assembling, testing, and publishing recipes for their fellow cooks to enjoy. The revolution that is television gave us TV cooks and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the internet revolution, allowing everybody to search through thousands of recipes like those on this site. |
