It's time for another "foodie" idea.
Our sosatie party came as a result of Dad wanting to have an interactive meal, and with the inspiration of Chef Sam on our side, we ended up having a superb evening meal with everybody involved in the preparation thereof.
What you need:
* Enough metal skewers for everyone to have at least two each.
* A variety of different chopped-up foodstuffs. Here are some suggestions: MEAT: skinned, deboned chicken thighs, bacon rashers, cocktail viennas, diced beef. VEGETABLES: mushrooms, pineapple, diced butternut, baby potatoes, baby marrows, onion, baby tomatoes, diced red, yellow and green peppers. DESSERT: marshmallows, jelly tots, melon balls, papaya balls, strawberries, chocolate for dipping.
* Coarse salt and black pepper.
* Olive oil.
* Marinade (if preferred).
* A prepared barbeque.
What to do:
* Wash hands.
* Place all ingredients in easy reach of all dinner participants.
* Provide each person with a plate to work over and their metal skewers.
* Let everyone prepare their own skewers. Encourage a varied combination of ingredients.
* Suggest inserting onion and green pepper squares in between the cubes of meat - this adds to the flavour.
* Lightly season the prepared kebab sticks with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
*Drizzle olive oil over meat and vegetable kebabs. Marinade can be applied to meat kebabs if preferred.
* Place prepared skewers over hot coals. Turn regularly until cooked through. ( *Allocate an adult to supervise this activity closely!)
* Enjoy your fun-to-make and fun-to-eat meal!
