When making these at home on the barbecue for friends, I marinate the pork overnight to get that punchy flavour. Once cooked they are great to grab and eat straight off the barbecue or skewered into a mound of rice.

These crunchy, spicy lentil balls, similar to falafel or Indian ʻvadaʼ, are one of the most popular street food snacks, or ʻgajacksʼ, in Mauritius.

A delicacy in the Seychelles, this dish is simple and endlessly adaptable.
