Moroccan Lamb Meatballs

4.0

1 ½ tbsp olive oil ((for cooking))

500 g / 1 lb lamb mince (ground lamb) ((Note 1))

1 small onion (, grated using box grater (~½ cup, including juices, Note 2))

½ cup panko breadcrumbs ((sub ordinary))

1 egg

2 cloves garlic, crushed

¼ cup coriander/cilantro leaves (, finely chopped)

1 ½ tsp EACH cumin, coriander, paprika ((any, but I like smoked paprika))

½ tsp EACH cinnamon, cayenne pepper ((add more for spicy))

1 tsp cooking/kosher salt

¼ tsp black pepper

¾ cup plain yoghurt ((I use Greek))

½ cup (tightly packed) mint leaves

2 tsp lemon juice

¼ tsp cooking/kosher salt

4 pita pockets (, Lebanese or pita bread)

5 cups shredded lettuce ((iceberg, cost/romaine))

2 tomatoes (, halved, thinly sliced)

1 red onion (, halved, finely sliced)

OR Shredded Red Cabbage, Carrot and Mint Salad ((instead of lettuce, tomato and onion))

Extra coriander/cilantro leaves, (finely chopped (optional))

Mint yogurt sauce - Set aside ½ cup yogurt. Place all other ingredients in a jug that fits the head of a stick blender. Blitz until it turns green - it will be runny. Stir in reserved yogurt (this thickens it again). Refrigerate until required.
Meatballs - Place all Meatball ingredients in a bowl. Mix well with your hands. Measure out 1 heaped tablespoon, then roll into balls. Repeat with remaining mixture - should have 20 - 24 meatballs.
Cook - Heat oil in a large non stick pan over medium heat. Add half the meatballs and cook, turning to brown all over, for 8 minutes, or until cooked through. Transfer to plate. (Oven option - Note 4)
Serving - Cut pita pockets in half, warm for 10 seconds in the microwave, then pry it open. Stuff with lettuce, tomato, onion, then meatballs (I do 2 per half pocket). Drizzle with Mint Yogurt Sauce and fresh coriander.
