Step 1

Preheat oven to 180C conventional. Line an oven tray with baking paper.

Step 2

In a bowl, combine mince, soup mix, bread crumbs, egg, garlic and barbecue sauce. Season well with cracked black pepper. Form into 16 small balls.

Step 3

Press a cheese cube into the centre of each ball. Press the mince to enclose the cheese and reshape into a ball.

Step 4

Cut each rasher in half widthwise, then cut each width in half lengthwise so you have 32 long, narrow strips. Wrap two strips in a cross pattern around each mince ball.

Step 5

Brush a barbecue plate or fry pan with olive oil. Brown MOINK balls well on all sides. Transfer to prepared oven tray and bake for 10 minutes until cooked through.
