1. Marinate lamb cubes in mixture of olive oil, garlic, yogurt, soy sauce, mustard and thyme with pepper to taste for at least two hours, but preferably overnight.
2. Thread lamb on skewers, alternating with pieces of onion and peppers.
3. Combine yogurt, garlic, lemon juice and coriander leaves and season to taste with salt and pepper.
