Pinchitos

(Spicy Spanish Pork Kebabs)

1 lb pork loin
3-4 lemons, cut and squeezed (leave rinds with marinade)
3 Tbsp cumin
¼ c olive oil
¼ c garlic, minced
½ tsp cayenne pepper
1 ample pinch of saffron
Salt and pepper to taste

Cube pork into 1-inch pieces; season with salt and pepper and set aside. Mix the remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Add the pork pieces to the bowl, mix well, and let sit overnight in the refrigerator.

Soak wooden skewers in water at least 30 minutes before using. 10 minutes before grilling, skewer the pork pieces. Place directly on hot grill, turning frequently, until meat is fully cooked.

Remove to plates and serve with rice, crusty bread and a fresh salad.

We lived in Gibralrat for some years and Pinchitos were a favourite. We've been looking for a recipe for years!

We'll let you know how it goes...
