Ingredients
For the gnocchi and steak bites
- 0.5 kg steak ( 1 lb)
- 100 g fresh gnocchi (1 cup)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
For the tzatziki
- 1 cup PLAIN yogurt
- 1 cup grated cucumber
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint, chopped
- Juice from one lemon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- To marinate the steak, cut into into bite-sized chunks and add it to a bowl.
- Mix together the olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, salt and pepper, and coat the beef with it.
- Leave to marinate for 10-15 minutes.
- Thread on a skewer one beef chunk, then one gnocchi, and continue to alternate until you use up all the ingredients - you can get 4-5 skewers.
- Grill for 2 minutes or until the beef is cooked to your liking, and the gnocchi is soft.
- To make the sauce, use your hands to lightly squeeze the excess liquid from the grated cucumber, then add it to a bowl together with the yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, mint, salt and pepper.
- Give it a good stir, and refrigerate until ready to use.
