ISKENDER KEBAB
I tried this dish at a Turkish restaurant in London and was amazed by its delicious taste! I later found out that this dish was named after Alexander the Great, whom the Persians called 'Iskender.' Apparently it was his favourite food.

Steps:
- First make the marinade for the meat.
- Place onions in a food processor and process till liquid, discard any remaining onion pulp.
- Mix salt, pepper, olive oil, and onion juice in a bowl.
- Add diced or cubed lamb pieces and marinade overnight or for 24 hours.
- Place marinaded lamb pieces onto a skewer and cook on grill, basting with more marinade until brown and tender all over, approximately 10-15 minutes.
- While the meat is cooking you can prepare the Iskender plate.
- Warm pita on the grill on both sides and keep warm.
- When everything is ready then slice the pita into squares, divide into 4 portions and place as a layer on each plate.
- Crush garlic with the salt and add into yogurt, mix well, add extra salt to taste.
- Spoon onto the pita squares just before adding hot lamb kebabs.
- Cut tomatoes in half and grill slowly until hot, don't overcook, as they will become too soft and soggy.
- Repeat with the chilli peppers.
- Mix tomato puree with olive oil and pepper and heat in a small saucepan, add salt to taste, and drizzle over kebabs as it is the meat sauce.
- Garnish with the grilled tomatoes and chili peppers, and sprigs of fresh dark green parsley or mint.
