A morning for Shashlyk
5 years ago
This weekend I was encouraged by my BF to cook a meal for the first time in my new home, so he provided me with a wonderful recipe for a Russian-style barbecue of skewered pork over hot coals. The dish so stylishly called, "shashlyk" comprised of onion slices and pork neck fillets I carved off myself from the bone to be left marinaded over night in apple cider vinegar, salt, and coriander (cilantro to us American types), and skewered the next morning over burning coals. Although, the true Russian recipe calls for birch coals, I only had access to classic coal briquettes, so I supposed that's my American twist on it!
As the skewers cooked slowly, I applied a sauce I made from scratch which was derived of freshly chopped garlic, salt, a couple spoons full of vinegar, and ketchup. In my opinion, the sauce truly tied the whole thing together and created one of the most delicious barbecue foods I've ever made! oh, and I cant forget that I also grilled some vegetables such as squash, three colors of bell pepper, zucchini and mushrooms.
I gotta hand it to
VolsungKaesoron the man has good taste in grilled food!
....Even though he kept asking if I've realized Russian barbecue was better than American yet; perhaps.. but I could never solemnly admit that in a public domain...:)
