Ingredients

FOR SKEWERS

  • 2 medium tomatoes cut in squares
  • 1 large potato cut in cubes
  • 1 large bell pepper cut in squares
  • 1 large onion cut in squares
  • 1 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika powder
  • 1/2 tsp cumin powder
  • 1 tbsp vinegar
  • Oil or butter for grilling

FOR SAUCE

  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp vinegar
  • 1 tsp ketchup
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions

Sauce

  • Combine all the ingredients for the sauce and form a uniform mixure. Set aside

Skewers

  • Boil the cut up potatoes for 2 minutes in 1 tsp salt and 1 tbsp vinegar
  • Drain the water from potatoes and allow them to cool down.
  • Toss all the cut up vegetables in a bowl.
  • Add seasoning to the vegetables and mix them well
  • Thread the vegetables on to sticks or skewers
  • Turn on a grill pan at medium to high flame and add the skewers on the pan.
  • While on the pan, glaze the skewers with the sweet and sour sauce and turn them around once or twice and remove. Grill them for a total of about 2 to 3 minutes only. Over grilling them can make the vegetable too soft.

Notes

Serve warm with Greek yogurt or a dip of your choice.
You can prepare the threaded skewers in advance as well and simply leave the grilling part for the day that you want them on.
