Summer weather calls for lighter meals, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still enjoy prime, lean beef. Here, we’ve used our best-quality minced beef to make quick and tasty meatballs, served next to a tomato and olive salad with a delicious honey-mustard dressing. Serves 4.

…Well, almost (sadly, it turns out that sones are too crumbly to skewer, but luckily Madeira cake will stand in nicely). Please note that the prep time will be longer if you’re waiting for a charcoal BBQ to come up to cooking temperature. Typically makes 8-10 skewers. 

Summer on a skewer! We find shell-on prawns stay juiciest, but by all means try it with shelled prawns if preferred. Serves 4.
