This yogurt-based marinade is more for flavour than for tenderizing. You could also use a boneless pork shoulder blade roast or boneless pork loin centre roast.

Preparation
Lemon Ginger Marinade: In large bowl, whisk together yogurt, ginger, lemon rind and juice, oil, garlic, cumin, salt and pepper.
Cut pork into 1-inch (2.5 cm) cubes; add to bowl and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours, stirring occasionally.
(Make-ahead: Refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)
Cut lemon into 1/4-inch (5 mm) thick slices; cut each into quarters. Alternately thread pork and lemon quarters onto 4 metal or soaked wooden skewers.
Place on greased grill over medium-high heat; brush with any remaining marinade. Close lid and grill, turning 4 times, until golden brown and just a hint of pink remains inside, about 12 minutes.
