After the first few bar. becues of the season, many homemakers begin to look for a lively new flavor that gets away from the 'epetitious round of burgers md beefsteak. Make lamb the star of your iext cookout and watch oarbecue boredom vanish. Lamb en Brochette is a delicious moderrvday shish- kabob version of the age-old dish made when chunks of wild game were skewered on swords by far-away tribesmen and roasted over an open fire centuries ago. (Even the origin of the term shish-kabob stems from the use of the sword -- shish -- to roast pieces of meat -- kabobs). Pierre Boulle's novel took place on a faraway planet in the distant future after human civilization as we know it had been destroyed.

What does a planet do when it finds out that the visiting family has a baby that can destroy mankind? All the answers are in "Escape from the Planet of the Apes" coming soon to the Odeon Weston Theatre. Lamb en brochette prefer to marinate the lamb before cooking for additional flavor, try a simple French dressing and let the cut-up lamb stay in the marinade in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight. Serve the lamb kabobs on hot savoury rice and ao. company the dish with foil- wrapped, grilled tomatoes. A colorful crisp salad will enhance the main course. For a spectacular finale, plan to prepare deliciously different fruit brochettes for dessert.
