Name: Lyndon Dykes' pitch-perfect pork souvlaki
Total time: 1200 s
Yield: 4
Ingredients: 600 gram pork fillet; 2 lemon; 4 clove garlic; 1 teaspoon dried oregano; 4 wholemeal pitta; 60 gram houmous; 100 gram little gem lettuce; 40 gram pickled red onions

Step 1

In a bowl, mix the pork (600 g) with the lemon zest (2) , the garlic (4 cloves) , the dried oregano (2 g) and a good glug of olive oil. Skewer onto 8 skewers and set aside to marinate for 1 hour.

Step 2

Heat a griddle pan over a high heat. Cook the pork skewers for 6 minutes, turning halfway, or until caramelised and browned all over. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Step 3

Char the lemon halves in the pan, flesh-side down, until caramelised. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.

Step 4

Toast the pittas (4) in the griddle pan. To build the souvlaki, spoon 1 tbsp houmous (60 g) into each pitta followed by the pork. Top with the little gem lettuce leaves (100 g) and pickled red onions (40 g) . Finish each with a squeeze of juice from the charred lemon halves.
