        Method:<\/h2>
        1. Soak skewers in cold water for 30 minutes before use. If sharp, trim the ends using kitchen scissors for safety.<\/li>
        2. Grate zucchini and carrot. Squeeze out excess liquid from zucchini using a clean cloth or paper towel.<\/li>
        3. In a large bowl, combine lamb mince, grated vegetables, parsley and egg. Mix until well combined.<\/li>
        4. Shape the mixture into small sausage-like logs and press gently onto each skewer, leaving space at the top. Skewer one cherry tomato onto the exposed end of each stick.<\/li>
        5. Place prepared skewers in the fridge for 15 minutes to firm up.<\/li>
        6. Wash potatoes thoroughly and while leaving skins on, slice into wedges.<\/li>
        7. Place potato wedges onto a lined baking tray. Drizzle with oil and toss to coat evenly.<\/li>
        8. Optional:<\/em><\/strong> Add dried or fresh herbs for flavour (approx. 1 tbsp herbs per 300g of potato).<\/li>
        9. Preheat oven to 200\u00b0C (fan forced). Bake wedges for 25\u201330 minutes or until golden and cooked through.<\/li>
        10. While wedges are baking, heat a frypan over medium-high heat. Cook the kebabs for 5 minutes on each side or until browned and fully cooked.<\/li>
        11. Wash cucumbers and cut into finger-length sticks.<\/li><\/ol>
