For an extra smoky flavor, consider using charcoal or wood chips when grilling. If using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before threading to prevent them from burning on the grill. Serve these delicious sosaties with rice, couscous, or a fresh salad for a complete and satisfying meal.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a mixing bowl, whisk together the plain yogurt, curry powder, sugar, and vegetable oil until well combined. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed to suit your preference. (5 minutes)
02
StepThread the skewers, alternating cubes of lamb, onion pieces, and dried apricot halves. (15 minutes)
03
StepPlace the assembled sosaties into a large resealable bag or a shallow dish. Pour the prepared yogurt sauce over the sosaties, ensuring they are evenly coated. (5 minutes)
04
StepSeal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate. Allow the sosaties to marinate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld together beautifully. (8+ hours)
05
StepPreheat your grill to medium heat (about 350-450°F or 175-230°C) and lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking. (10 minutes)
06
StepCarefully place the marinated sosaties on the preheated grill. Grill for approximately 8 to 10 minutes on each side, or until the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness and the vegetables are slightly charred and tender. (16-20 minutes)
07
StepRemove the grilled sosaties from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender and flavorful lamb.
