Shish Kabab
Shish Kabab has been a favorite of the Mediterranean for a long time, with recipes that have been passed on from generation to generation. Perhaps the best thing about this dish is that it satiates vegetarians and meat-lovers, as you could either stick on the ‘shish’ (i.e. the skewer) either vegetables or meat! Bon appétit!
