Yield: 5-6

Ingredients

• 550g beef mince
• 250g pork mince
• 2-3 cloves garlic, crushed and finely chopped
• 5 shallots, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon finely chopped lemon grass
• 2 tablespoons fish sauce
• 2 teaspoons finely chopped palm sugar
• freshly ground black pepper
• coriander leaves

Method

Combine all the ingredients except coriander leaves in a large bowl, mix really well and then cover and refrigerate for an hour or more to allow the flavours to develop.
Soak 12 bamboo skewers in a glass of water.

With wet hands divide the mince into 12 portions and roll each into a sausage shape. Slide a skewer into each.

Heat a griddle, large frying pan or barbecue, spray with a film of oil and cook the skewers until well coloured and cooked through.
Serve with coriander,  roti bread, salad and sweet chilli sauce.
