what is the correct term really? kebabs or kabobs??? I have seen this terms alternatively in restaurant menus. I guess they mean the same thing, in any case I prefer using kebabs because the other term just sound like... you get what I mean! haha!
In any case, the other day I just put together a simple shrimp dish made from left over shrimps that I had frozen from two or three days prior. I had about a quarter kilo left and it seemed that it won't be enough for a decent filling meal. I finally decided to make kebabs using tomatoes, onion and bell pepper (some of my veggie staple, along with carrots and potatoes!).
I remembered how good grilled onion and tomatoes are with lamb kebabs but feeling lazy to grill just a few sticks of kebab, I decided to just pan fry it.
