Lamb Meatballs
1 pound ground lamb
3 tablespoons red onion, finely chopped
1 small garlic clove, minced or crushed in a garlic press
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 tablespoons breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon cumin
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 cup fresh mint (loosely packed and finely chopped)
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 fresh lemon for squeezing and garnish, cut into quarters
Optional: 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Tzatziki Sauce
1 large cucumber
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon fresh mint, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh dill, finely chopped
2 cups Greek yogurt

Steps:

  • In the bowl with the lamb, add red onion, garlic, egg, bread crumbs, cumin, mayonnaise, fresh mint, and salt. Using your hands, mix thoroughly to distribute the ingredients evenly. With a teaspoon, form the mixture into 24 meatballs. Don't level the meat off or pack the meatballs too tightly.
  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Lightly spread canola oil on a baking sheet using a paper towel. Place the meatballs two inches apart on the baking sheet, and position the baking sheet 4 inches from the heat source.
  • Broil for about 5 minutes, turning once halfway through.
  • Arrange the meatballs on a serving platter, and squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top. Sprinkle the cayenne pepper over the meatballs at the last minute. Serve at once with tzatziki.
  • Place cucumber, olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, mint, and dill in a bowl and mix well. Add the Greek yogurt and mix well.
  • Cover with plastic wrap or place in an airtight container, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 to 3 hours before serving.
