  • “This is a TERRIFIC recipe, One that today was made by ME! 🙂 “If I could only read” sometimes, My comedy can be added to my rhymes! Used 1 lb/almost 500g lamb mince, TRUE! Then FORGOT to put parsley into lamb mixture too! Wound up is ok for me, As parsley is in the yogurt sauce definately to see! With the less amount, obtained 30 lamb rolled balls, TRUE! Put 3 on each skewer, on to the BBQ! VERY economical, healthy too, OH, did I mention was VERY yummy and did NOT forget to put the red wine in to! 🙂 THANKS! UPDATE: Photo added :)”
