Soak 4 long wooden skewers in cold water for at least 20 minutes to help prevent skewers burning during barbecuing.
Chilling Rogan Josh skewers prior to cooking will help maintain their shape during grilling.
Finely grating onion into the mince will help it cook down easily. If using chopped onion, it is a good idea to soften it in a little oil or butter and then leave to cool before adding to mince.
Get the children involved. Have them shape their own mince onto the skewer.
Kids love mince and being rich in protein, iron and zinc, it's great for them too.
