You can barbecue these but we use a griddle on the stove
Thrad the pork onto wooden skewers and cook on a high heat for about 2 minutes each side so they are still juicy inside.
season with salt and pepper.
We eat them with cous cous and green salad
the book says that at Moro (the restaurant) they serve with a tomato and parsley salad with a sherry wine vinegar dressing
