Finely chop the onion, garlic, and parsley, and set them aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, chopped onion, garlic, parsley, breadcrumbs, egg, cumin powder, coriander powder, ground cinnamon, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly until everything is evenly incorporated.
Using your hands, shape the lamb mixture into small oval patties, about 2 cm thick.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Place the lamb koutlets in the skillet without overcrowding. Cook them for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked through.
Remove the koutlets from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Serve hot with a side of tzatziki sauce, pita bread, or a simple green salad.
