Sosaties are South African grilled skewers of spiced or curried meat. In this
recipe, cubes of pork are marinated in a delicious fruity marinade, which
includes apricot jam and the famous Mrs Ball’s chutney, then threaded with
chunks of onion and colourful capsicum.

Red and green capsicums, cut into chunks
2 large onions, cut into wedge

4 tbsp lemon juice
4 tbsp Mrs Ball’s (or your favourite fruit) chutney
½ cup olive oil

If you have time, marinate kebabs in a sealed container in the fridge for a few
hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
Remove from the fridge one hour before cooking.
Prepare the braai or grill to medium-high heat and brush the grill with oil.
