  • 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons tahini paste
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • In a blender or food processor, purée all the ingredients until smooth and paste-like. Divide the lamb mixture into two portions, and mould each half around a separate metal skewer to form two long sausage shapes.
