What to do:
1. Combine all the ingredients for the kabobs and divide mixture into 4. Shape into sausage shapes around the 4 skewers. If the kabobs are not required immediately chill the skewers of meat until required.
2. Grill or barbecue for about 15- 20 min., turning until brown and cooked through.
3. Meanwhile combine all the ingredients for the salsa, season well. Heat the pita and split length-ways. Fill with salsa and the grilled kabobs.
Note: If you are using wooden skewers soak them in water for at least an hour before hand and this will stop them burning when you grill or barbecue them.
* These are great for barbecues, to take in lunch boxes or even as a quick family meal idea.
