How to Make Bbq Kiwifruit Lamb Kebabs

  1. Scoop the flesh from 2 ripe kiwifruit and mash thoroughly until completely smooth.
  2. In a bowl, combine the mashed kiwifruit with 500g cubed New Zealand lamb, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, and a pinch of black pepper.
  3. Gently stir to coat the lamb evenly. Cover the bowl and marinate at room temperature for 20-60 minutes (longer is better for maximum tenderness).
  4. Thread the marinated lamb cubes onto skewers. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes prior to prevent burning.
  5. Preheat your barbecue or grill to high heat. Place the kebabs on the hot grill and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, turning frequently, until the lamb is cooked through and nicely browned. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  6. Remove from the grill, let rest for a few minutes, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
