cookingtaco: Adding blended up macadamia to my brownie mix. (Default)
So yeah, I said I would cook something every day of this week, but kind of failed.

But today I cooked two things (kind of). I made some tzatziki and the some souvlakia.

So first the tzatziki. I got about 3 cloves of garlic and crushed them (left the skin on, woops! :P) and then added them to some olive oil and lemon juice. I then added this to about 100ish grams of Greek yoghurt (though, it wasn't that thick.). I think I also added some lemon rind. I mixed it up heaps. Then I grated a cucumber and cut it into pieces, having taken gotten rid of the seeds. I chucked that into the mixture. That was the tzatziki, I then just put it in the fridge.

My mum had some lamb cubes, so I got them and added some of the left over lemon/ garlic/ oil thing I had to marinate them. I spread it around with my hand. I then added oregano (proper oregano, from the dried up plant) and some salt. I then put it on skewers and grilled in the oven. I also added extra garlic and lemon.

It all turned out rather nice. Here's a pic:

Also check my Flickr for more pics of my Easter meat deliciousness.

Stay tuned, I may make an apple crumble tonight, depending on whether I can be bothered.
