Personally, I love the taste of lamb. Actually, I love any foods with Middle Eastern flavors. Give me my Syrian Salad and a little rice pilaf, and I’m one happy camper.
Having a craving, I invented this lamb recipe based on a feeling. On love. I would have preferred a lamb kabob (shish taouk at my local restaurant), but I didn’t have the right kind of lamb and it’s getting too cold to grill. Plus, I wanted something totally quick, yum, and easy.
Thus, lamb meatballs, ready in minutes.
Lamb Meatballs
Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground lamb
- Handful of chopped parsley
- 1 egg
- 1 medium clove garlic, chopped
- Salt
- Olive oil
Directions:
- Mix all the lamb, parsley, egg, garlic, and salt together in a bowl.
- Place the olive oil in the pan, and turn on the heat.
- Form small meatballs (they cook faster!) and lower them into the hot pan.
- Turn them so they brown on all sides then cover the pan for a bit until the meatballs are fully cooked inside.
All this should take no more than 20 minutes. I defy you not to eat all of them. But this should be enough for two to three people, depending on their love of lamb.
Sounds good, I love lamb also. Just purchased some lamb sausages at my natural foods market last week. They are delish. Love a good, quick, tasty recipe. Will try this one. Thanks!
I saw someone place meatballs in muffin pans to bake. I tried it and it really works grwat.
And they’re Paleo! I wonder if you could bake them? My husband is from the Middle East and he would totally go for these… 😎
Delicious! With mint sauce, of course. 🙂 A favorite at our house now! Thanks!!
