Ingredients

• Ground lamb100 g
• Ground beef100 g
• Bacon (thinly sliced)50 g
• Sea salt0.5 tsp

Method

1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) or prepare a cast iron skillet for pan-frying.
2. In a bowl, combine the ground lamb and ground beef with the sea salt. Mix thoroughly by hand until well combined.
3. Divide the meat mixture into 2-3 equal portions. Form each portion into a stick shape, about 1-inch thick and 4-5 inches long.
4. Wrap each meat stick with 1-2 strips of bacon, ensuring it is snugly covered.
5. To pan-fry: Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the bacon-wrapped sticks for 8-12 minutes, turning frequently, until bacon is crispy and meat is cooked through.
6. To bake: Place the bacon-wrapped sticks on a wire rack over a baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the meat is cooked to your desired doneness.
7. Serve hot as a hearty hand-held snack or meal.
