Souvlaki Kebabs
If you’ve ever had the fortune to visit Greece or Cyprus, you’ll most certainly have come across their beloved souvlaki kebabs. Grilled on the BBQ and eaten with pitta breads, yogurt and a crunchy salad they’re a true taste of holidays in the sun. The traditional flavourings in souvlaki are oregano and garlic but we’ve added cinnamon, allspice and sumac to make them extra special!
