• Peel one wrapper from the pack & place on bench in a diamond shape with one corner pointing towards you
• Place 1 tablespoon of lamb mix on the wrapper & spread the mix from the far left hand corner of the wrapper towards the right corner stopping short about 2-3 inches of the right corner in a thin line about the thickness of 3 drinking straws
• Using a pastry brush paint the egg mixture around all edges of the wrapper
