Food is an essential element in all our lives. In today’s busy environment getting the family around the table to share a wholesome home cooked meal can be a challenge. Whilst Australia Day has come and gone and Sam Kekovich appeared to be inextricably absent it’s time to fire up the BBQ and celebrate one of my own favourites Greek Style Lamb. This is a carnivore’s delight and a great way to satisfy the hunger of family or friends.
