Advieh, herbs, and pomegranate molasses give these lamb meatballs a Persian flair. Serve with flatbreads and yogurt or over a green salad. If you go the salad route, include some fresh herbs and pomegranate molasses to match the meatballs.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds ground lamb
- ½ cup panko bread crumbs
- ½ cup minced scallions
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
- 1 tablespoon advieh
- 2 teaspoons dried dill
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- cooking spray
- 2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses, or to taste
Directions
Step 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.
Step 2
Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
Step 3
Form the lamb mixture into 1-inch balls. Arrange on a rimmed baking sheet. Mist the tops with cooking spray.
Step 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 degrees F (60 degrees C).
Step 5
Brush the meatballs with pomegranate molasses as soon as they come out of the oven.
Cook’s Note:
Advieh is a Persian spice blend of cumin, coriander, cinnamon, cardamom, and dried rose petals. If you can't find it online or in a spice shop, mix up your own using one of the many recipes online. Or use a Middle Eastern spice blend with similar ingredients.
