Method

  1. Put the pork in a shallow dish and season well. Mix the remaining ingredients together except the rosemary sprigs and spoon over the pork. Mix well to coat. Cover and chill for 2 hrs.
  2. Preheat the grill to a medium setting. Thread the pork between 8 short skewers and place them on a grill rack. Brush them with any spiced yogurt that’s left in the dish.
  3. Grill for 7-8 mins then turn over and brush with more spiced yogurt. Return to the grill to cook for a further 6-7 mins until tender and thoroughly cooked.
  4. To serve, drain the skewers and serve on a warm platter, garnished with fresh rosemary, accompanied with crisp salad, baked potatoes and coleslaw.
Top Tip for making Dijon mustard coated pork skewers

Dijon mustard is a fruity, slightly pungent French mustard. For a milder flavour, use the same quantity of wholegrain mustard. If you want a powerful mustard flavour, use 2-3tsp English mustard to taste.
