Mint Greek Meatballs Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 pound ground lamb
• 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
• Olive oil, for frying

Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground lamb, feta cheese, chopped mint, chopped parsley, minced garlic, egg, salt, black pepper, and breadcrumbs. Mix until well combined.
2. Form mixture into 1-inch meatballs.
3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add meatballs and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and cooked through.
4. Remove meatballs from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Serve hot.

Verdict:

The combination of the lamb, feta cheese, and fresh herbs in these meatballs make for a delicious and flavorful bite. The addition of crunchy breadcrumbs also gives a nice texture to the meatballs. These can be served as a main dish or as an appetizer with tzatziki sauce for dipping.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve with roasted vegetables or a Greek salad. Top with tzatziki sauce and enjoy!
