Method

Meatballs Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, chopped mint, cumin powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and the egg. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.

    Form the Meatballs

    With your hands, shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter.

  3. 3

    Cook the Meatballs

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little olive oil. Add the meatballs in batches, cooking for about 5-7 minutes on each side until they are browned and cooked through. Make sure to turn them gently.
