Categories     Dinner

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 13

500 g (1lb) ground/minced lamb
500 g (1lb) ground/minced beef
1 cup fresh breadcrumbs
2 large eggs
½ cup feta cheese (crumbled)
1 small red onion (finely minced )
2 garlic cloves (crushed )
zest of 1 lemon
3 tsp dried oregano
2 tsp rosemary (finely chopped)
½ cup parsley (finely chopped)
2 tsp salt
1-2 tsp black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine all the ingredients and mix until the ingredients are just combined, taking care not to over mix (this can cause the meatballs to be very dense).
  • To mix the meatballs: With wet hands (this prevents the meat from sticking to your hands), form meatballs of approximately 3cm/1in and place on a chopping board.
  • To fry the meatballs: pre-heat a non-stick frying pan and add a tablespoon of olive oil. Fry the meatballs in batches until golden brown on both sides and cooked through.
  • To bake the meatballs: Pre-heat the oven to 220ºC. Line 2 baking sheets with baking/parchment paper and add the meatballs, keeping some space between them. Drizzle the meatballs with 1-2 tbsp olive oil and place in the oven. Allow to bake, turning over halfway, until golden brown and cooked through (approximately 20-30 minutes).
  • Remove the meatballs from the heat, drizzle with lemon juice (optional) and serve.

GREEK LAMB & FETA MEATBALLS



Greek Lamb & Feta Meatballs image

A recipe from one of my husband's colleagues. She said she usually just uses 1 lb of meat, since that's the typical pkg size and has substituted dried oregano, basil, parsley, and mint for the fresh herbs. It was a big hit at the party. Number of meatballs depends on how big you make each one; would work as an appetizer or part of a main dish.

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 lb (1 kilo) minced lamb
1 lb feta cheese - crumbly greek style
20-40 olives, diced smallish

Steps:

  • 1. Pre-heat your oven to 400oF (200oC) and line a LARGE baking sheet (you might need 2).
  • 2. Chop your feta cheese into small-ish dice (I aim for about a small fingernail size). Chop your olives, I chop mine in quarters, but smaller would be fine too.
