Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground lamb
- 50 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
- 30 grams Almond flour
- 1 piece Large egg
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, grated Parmesan cheese, almond flour, egg, parsley, and minced garlic.
Add the ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper to the mixture.
Using clean hands, mix everything together until all the ingredients are well combined.
Shape the mixture into meatballs, about the size of a golf ball. You should get approximately 16 meatballs.
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the meatballs in batches, browning them on all sides (about 5 minutes per batch).
Transfer the browned meatballs to the oven-safe skillet or a baking dish, if needed, and place them in the preheated oven.
Bake for about 10 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let the meatballs rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
