2 x tbsp dried oregano
1 x tsp dried chervil

Method for Pork Souvlaki:
- Add all the ingredients into a bowl and mix to form a paste
- Trim the pork of all sinew and add it to a sealable bag with the paste. Move the pork around to fully coat it in the paste
- Refrigerate the pork for a minimum of 1 hour, but up to 24 hours is best for all the flavours to soak in
- Remove it from the fridge and put it under a grill for 14 minutes, turning halfway through
- Remove it from the grill, wrap it in foil and leave it to rest for 15 minutes while you prepare the side dishes
- You can serve with other items, but a fresh Greek salad and tzatziki is best. This Greek salad had chopped tomatoes, cucumber, feta and olives.
