Ingredients
- 900 g (2 pounds) diced lamb neck
- 2 tbsp extra rapeseed oil to brush on skewers
BBQ sauce
- 120 ml (½ cup) light soy sauce
- 100 g (½ cup) light brown sugar
- 80 ml (⅓ cup) lemon juice or calamansi juice, if available
- 250 g (1 cup) banana or regular ketchup
- 1 tbsp garlic paste
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp Sriracha or more if you like it spicy
For marinade
- 120 ml (½ cup) lemon soda eg. Sprite or Seven Up
Instructions
- Mix the ingredients for the BBQ sauce in a ceramic or glass container.
- Transfer ⅓ of the sauce to a jar and refrigerate, you will be using this to baste the lamb skewers as you grill them.
- Mix the remaining sauce with the lemon soda, add the lamb and stir to combine. Cover and put in the fridge for 4-8 hours or overnight.
- Take the lamb out of the fridge, drain and discard the marinade.
- Thread the meat onto metal skewers – you will have enough for 4-5 large skewers or 6-8 smaller ones. If using wooden skewers make sure to soak in water for half an hour before grilling. Pat the kebabs dry using kitchen paper.
- Spread coals over the barbecue and heat until the flames die down completely and the coals turn ashy. You want the BBQ to be medium, not searing hot.
- Brush the lamb skewers with a little rapeseed or sesame oil. Grill until the surface starts to char and only turn when they easily release from the grill.
- Start basting the skewers with the reserved barbecue sauce, turning them and basting as you go.
- Cook for around 8 minutes per side. The best way to check the lamb is properly cooked is to insert a meat thermometer – it should read 70C (160F).
- Rest the skewers for at least five minutes before serving. Smaller skewers are fantastic as a shared appetiser or you can serve with rice as a main meal.
