Rather than a thread for each recipe I post / follow / request / whatever, here's a thread for mediterranean food, which for me is arguably the best food in the world. If you've ever been to Turkey and eaten proper Turkish food (not the touristy stuff, the real deal, made with local ingredients) you'll know what I mean.

I can't stand lamb so I won't be able to provide much on that front but feel free to post up some stuff anyway, hoping we can get some good recipes and ideas in here.

The first thing I'd like to make is proper chicken shish, granted I'll never be able to get the another-level ingredients grown on the med but by using our local farmers and a bit of research I reckon I might be able to come pretty close.

So I guess my first question would be whether anyone has any recommended chicken shish recipes? I'll google some myself and post up what I end up using but as some of the stuff on the internet is posted by people who consider a pisshead kebab to be proper Turkish cuisine, I'm hoping someone has a decent suggestion.

Over to you folks :)
 
Fantastic stuff, thanks all :cool:

I grabbed all the ingredients for a nice shish kebab and I'm working from home tomorrow so I'll be giving it a shot. Hopefully it turns out alright.
 
Had lunch at Gokyuzu yesterday (if you've not been, go! Their food is absolutely phenomenal and well worth braving the slums of North London :p) and it just refreshed my love of Mediterranean food. Now I need to learn to make their chicken shish, holy cow it's good.

Gonna start researching and playing around but if anyone has any pointers, I'm all ears :)
