Preparation
Step 1
Make sauce by combining all sauce ingredients. I like to use a mortar and pestle for this to keep a more rustic texture -- you can use a blender or food processor but just pulse a few times. Combine anchovies, garlic, sugar, sun-dried tomatoes, mint and parsley, muddle until it forms a thick paste, add the rest of ingredients, and stir to combine. This can be made up to a week in advance and kept in the fridge.
In a medium bowl, mix meat with other ingredients, portion into six logs. Wrap the meat mixture around skewers.
Grill 4 minutes flip, cook another 3 minutes or so until firm. I used my indoor grill pan -- you can also do these under a broiler, just watch closely to not over cook.
