Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

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.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Ingredients

2 slices white bread, 1-inch thick
1/4 to 1/2 cup milk, to moisten
1/2 seedless cucumber
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons EVOO
1 1/2 pounds ground lamb or beef
Freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh mint
3 tablespoons grated red onion
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh oregano
2 pinches cinnamon
3 cloves garlic, grated or pasted
1 large egg
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
4 pocket-less pitas or flat breads, cut into wedges
1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt
1/4 cup fresh dill
1 teaspoon ground cumin

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place a cooling rack over 2 baking sheets for roasting the meatballs and toasting the pita.
Soak the bread in the milk. Peel the cucumber and grate into a strainer. Salt it and let it drain for 20 minutes.
Pour the EVOO into a bowl, then add the meat and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Squeeze out the bread and crumble between your fingers as you add it to the meat. Add the mint, onions, oregano, cinnamon, 2 of the garlic cloves, egg and 1/2 of the lemon juice, and mix to combine.
Using a small ice cream scoop, form the meat mixture into about 24 balls and place on the baking sheet. Roast to golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove the meatballs from the oven and place the broiler on high. Char the pita under the broiler, 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side.
Press the cucumber in the strainer to get out the excess water and add to a food processor. Then add the yogurt, dill, remaining 1 clove garlic, zest and remaining juice of the lemon. Season the sauce with cumin and salt and process until smooth.
Serve the meatballs with the sauce and pitas.
