Step 4
To prepare the lemon dressing, mix the yogurt, lemon zest and 2 tablespoons of water together.
Step 5
Cook the kebabs on a prepared barbecue or preheated moderate grill for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally or until any meat juices run clear.

If preferred, use 5% pork mince and add a whole egg yolk or a handful of fresh breadcrumbs to the meatball mix to bind everything together.
