Makes 6 skewers

Equipment: 6 metal skewers, Barbecue

Ingredients

Kebabs:

750g Hunts Premium Beef sirloin steak, fat trimmed and cut to 2cm cubes

½ red pepper, diced to the same size as the beef

½ yellow pepper, diced to the same size as the beef

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 tbsp dried oregano

Yogurt and cucumber dip:

200g Greek yoghurt

½ cucumber, grated

2 mint sprigs

3 dill sprigs

Turkish onion salad:

1 large red onion, very finely sliced

¼ bunch parsley

½ lemon, juiced

½ tsp sumac

To serve:

6 Turkish-style flatbreads

Lemon wedges

Method:

1 Dice the beef into neat cubes, then deseed the peppers and cut to the same size. Place in a bowl and toss with the oil, dried oregano, salt and pepper. Thread the skewers, alternating with the beef and peppers. Light the barbecue.

2 As the barbecue heats up, make the yoghurt dip by mixing the ingredients together, taste and add a pinch of salt to season. Mix the salad ingredients together in a bowl and keep both sides in the fridge until ready to serve.

3 Once the barbecue has reached temperature - around 200ºc or the coals should be ashy and glowing orange, cook the skewers, turning every few minutes until nicely charred and the meat is cooked through- about 10-12 minutes. Sirloin is a nice tender cut which can be eaten rare, so if you are unsure, err on the side of slightly under rather than over cooking it.

4 Heat the flatbreads for a minute on the barbecue as the skewers rest for a few minutes, then serve up with the skewers, yoghurt, onion salad and a lemon wedge.
