what’s happening guys another episode of
cooking with vog and we got a bit of a
treat for you guys we’re going to do
some uh lamp sulaka going to do like a
year Ros I’m going to do my own sort of
style so it’s going to pretty much have
everything that you usually would have
on them just might do it a little bit
different uh make it a bit easier I
might add a couple of things that some
people do add some people don’t and uh
while I’m cooking that up I might even
do something else that I like to do with
the p bread as well um as you can see
I’ve got a few different things here so
I might uh get a couple of those going
have a little bit of nibble have a
little snack while I cook use a mean
little sui rrap or Yos whatever you want
to call it so let’s get into
[Music]
[Music]
it um going to cut cut up the lamb I’ve
actually got the lamb back strap here
obviously the back strap on most uh on
all the bloody animals is going to be
the nice nicest going to be the most
tender it’s going to be the best cut of
meat so I thought I’d get that not too
much fat in there but it’ll be nice lean
um I’m gonna be adding a bit of fed a
bit of oil here and there so we’re going
to get our fats in there anyway so uh
it’ll be nice and moist from all that
but let’s get into that I’m going to cut
that up I’m going to marinate it up a
little bit we’re going to leave that
aside uh while we get everything else
prepared going to keep them pretty much
have
them cubes yeah nice little
cubes just like that now put them in
here and what we’re going to do marinate
that up and first just a little bit oil
there you go fresh oregano chop that up
however you want to do
it all right bit of
Rosemary get a bit of color in
there now pretty simple uh what I like
to use lemon pepper uh my mom with uh
every time she does it with lamb she
will always uh She’ll always just lemon
pepper lemon pepper obviously oregano
Rosemary and all these flavors you can
sort of do whatever you want salt and
pepper will be beautiful right just salt
by itself but lemon pepper is something
that my mom always would do uh and my so
that’s exactly what I’m going to do you
know we love our
flavors yeah get that on there beautiful
all right now mix that up a little
bit all right we’re going to set off
that off to the side and I’m going to
put that that on skewers uh when it’s
ready but we’ll get everything else
prepared let’s go the pet bread
obviously it’s all different type of uh
pet bread you can get you can get some
just from your Lo local supermarkets can
go find a better place that might have
uh more higher quality sort of pet
breads um I just went to the local uh
Supermarket got this um as long as you
cook them uh right they usually come up
pretty good sometimes if you don’t cook
them right they can get a bit flaky and
break and things like that so we’ll do
our best uh to cook them right but all
you need is a bit of olive oil I’m going
to sprinkle a bit of olive oil and um
right now I’m going to use the dried
Oregan right it up does matter how you
want to do it there you go
beautiful let’s do that again
right beautiful all
right awesome right so what I’m going to
do I’m going to cook some of these
obviously I’m going to make a wrap but
I’m going to use some of the the Peter
breads dce them up and I’m going to have
uh as I said I’m going to make a little
snack while I’m cooking um as you could
do a lot of times when I’m cooking a
barbecue this is what I’ll put out first
I’ll put some bitter bread I’ll get the
T
masal um always difficult to say that or
if you ziki dip it in it’s perfect just
like that honestly it’s just like that
even if you want to you know what
sprinkle a bit a lot of times I sprinkle
even a bit of lemon pepper on the pit of
breads as well and all this stuff that
I’m going to prepare is going to be so
quick cuz even the lamb we want to cook
that nice and quick on a hot plate and
that’s that so it’s all going to be done
pretty quickly so let’s go get these on
the
[Music]
barbecue so obviously when you’re when
you’re cooking them you don’t want to
undercook them and you don’t want to
overcook them you don’t want them
getting more charcoal right through
either and getting all crispy and just
breaking apart like that as well but I
mean again a couple of little uh burn
edges on there is always perfect you
know get a bit of color in there okay
shut that in so we’re going to get these
on the skewers lamps of laka uh what I
will do I’ll put some cherry tomatoes
and I will put some onions on there as
well so they can get a bit of a Char and
then what I’ll do with the rest of the
tomatoes and onions and even a bit of
the chili and some of the the flavors
feta cheese and all that I’m going to
sort of uh dice that up and have that
mixed in with the with the with the ziki
and the feda cheese and stuff like that
so I wouldn’t mind that little bit extra
freshness so I’m going to have some of
the onions and tomatoes slightly cooked
again you’re going to cook that really
quick going to have that real hot and
they’re just going to try and get a
decent Sea and the rest of it I’m going
to have it a little bit more fresh in
there and then we’re going to set these
skewers straight on top and uh that’s
going to be done very easy
right depending what colors you want I’m
going to put these I’m just going to
chop them up in half like that that’ll
do tomato get an onion
piece get another
one same again obviously you can do
capsicum you can do whatever you want
for me this is all I want there you go
perfect let’s do the same again going to
dice up some of this uh onion dice up
the tomatoes I’ll just dice it up
however you want chop it up however you
want you’ll see how I’ll do it even a
bit of the chili um maybe Chuck some of
the the herbs in there as well mix it up
and then that’s going to be bedding uh
the bedding on top of the ziziki all
right chop these
up a lot of times I’ll just while I’m
sitting there dig that right in
there
beautiful now get them straight on
there again with a lamb must steak or
