Preparation
Place lamb cubes in glass dish. Cover with Minty Yogurt Marinade, turning gently to coat. Refrigerate for 4 to 12 hours, turning meat occasionally.
Thread lamb cubes alternately with artichokes halves, onion and pepper chunks on small bamboo skewers (soaked in water for 1 hour to prevent them from burning) or on large metal skewers.
Grill on barbecue or under oven broiler 7, 8 minutes until preferred doneness. Turn and brush with marinade often during cooking.
Serve 1 to 2 kebabs per person and garnish with fresh mint. Serve with couscous and plain yogurt.
Minty Yogurt Marinade:
