BBQ Lamb Koftas / Corn Dogs
This recipe is quick and easy, basically “ground lamb on a stick”! Reminiscent of Lebanese and Moroccan-based koftas, you can change the spices to reflect Middle Eastern flavours, or a more local ingredient-based “corn dog” type treat!
Note: Ideally, soak wooden skewers for a few hours beforehand.
