INGREDIENTS

  • Meat

    • 🍖 1 ½ pounds ground lamb

  • Dry Ingredients

    • 🍞 ½ cup panko bread crumbs
    • 🧂 1 teaspoon kosher salt
    • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
    • 1 tablespoon advieh
    • 2 teaspoons dried dill

  • Vegetables & Herbs

    • 🧅 ½ cup minced scallions
    • 🌿 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

  • Liquids

    • 2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses, or to taste

  • Other

    • 🥚 2 eggs, lightly beaten
    • cooking spray

STEPS

1

Combine lamb, bread crumbs, scallions, mint, advieh, dill, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add beaten eggs, knead by hand until smooth and sticky. Cover and refrigerate until flavors blend, at least 30 minutes.

2

Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.

3

Form the lamb mixture into 1-inch balls. Arrange on a rimmed baking sheet. Mist the tops with cooking spray.

4

Broil in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Rotate the baking sheet and broil for 3 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 140°F (60°C).

5

Brush the meatballs with pomegranate molasses as soon as they come out of the oven.

💡 For added flavor, let the lamb mixture refrigerate longer before forming into meatballs.Serve with flatbreads and yogurt for a classic pairing, or over a green salad with fresh herbs and extra pomegranate molasses for a lighter meal.Ensure the internal temperature of the meatballs reaches 140°F for safe consumption.
