12
Turn meat out onto work surface. Wet hands with water, then shape into an even block 20cm/8" long.
13
Place 2 x 60cm / 2 feet long pieces of foil overlapping each other by 1/3. (Note 6)
14
Place meat on the end of the foil, then roll it up, tightly wrapping it in the foil.

Twist the ends firmly to form a log 25cm/10" long, then snip off excess foil. Roll into even log.
16
Thread skewers through the log.
17
Place log elevated in pan by propping skewers on the edge of the pan. (Note 7)
