Have not taken many pics lately...this was for Easter....Marinated Beef Kabobs (for you MDM...no lamb) over Rice Pilaf. The beauty of this one is I use Beef Rump Roast, which can be had at a good price vs lamb which is almost always costly and rice pilaf vs Saffron rice, which my wife uses a gram ($14.00) of in her large batch. The Beef is also easier to trim and cube than lamb.....Recipe to follow...along w/ the Lamb Shashlik I had posted in mid March.

BEEF KABOBS
3 lbs Rump/3 green peppers/1lb mushrooms/3 onions/pint of cherry tomatoes...
cube all except the tomatoes of course. This is our basic ratio...do what you
like.
MARINADE
1 cup Cabernet wine/1 Tbs Worcestershire sce/3-4 cloves garlic/1 cup Med olive oil...not extra virgin/1tsp salt/1/2 cup ketchup/2 tsp sugar/2 Tbs red wine vinegar/1 tsp marjoram/1 tsp rosemary....mix in blender...marinate for 2-3 days.
Grill and enjoy over a simple pilaf w/ fresh scallions and a few slivered almonds if you wish.

LAMB SHASHLIK
3 lbs leg of Lamb/3 green peppers/1lb mushrooms/3 onions/pint of cherry tomatoes..
cube all except the tomatoes of course. This is our basic ratio...do what you
like.
MARINADE
1 med onion fine dice/1.25 cup med olive oil...not extra virgin/2/3 tsp paprika/1.25 tsp salt/juice of 1 large lemon/3-4 cloves garlic...mix in blender...save a 1/2 cup of marinade (prior to adding to meat) for basting and heat to pour over everything after it is all done....marinate for 2 days.
grill and enjoy over rice...mega Saffron is great w/ fresh scallions...Enjoy
