Ingredients

If you don't have the Cookidoo app for your Thermomix follow the recipe below:

  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 sprigs fresh mint leaves only or fresh parsley, leaves only
  • 150 g (1 cup) onions quartered
  • 50 g (3 ½ tbsp) olive oil
  • 500 g (1.1 lb) lamb mince broken in pieces
  • 60 g (½ cups) breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp fine sea salt
  • 0.5 tsp ground black pepper
  • plain flour for dusting
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil

Instructions

  • Place the garlic, mint, onions and olive oil in the mixing bowl then chop 3 seconds/speed 7. Scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl with the spatula then sauté 2 minutes/100C/speed 1. Blend 10 seconds/speed 8 until mixture is smooth. Scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl with the spatula.
  • Add the lamb, breadcrumbs, oregano, salt and pepper then, with the aid of the spatula, mix 5 to 10 seconds/speed 5 until combined.
  • Using wet hands, roll 1 tbsp of the mixture into a ball and place on a plate. Repeat with the remaining mixture to make 24 meatballs. Dust the meatballs with flour.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Fry the meatballs in batches for 8 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned all over and cooked through. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Substitute the lamb mince for beef, chicken or turkey mince, if you prefer.
  • The meatballs can be made ahead, up to step 3, but don’t dust with flour until you’re ready to cook them. Place them on baking paper on a baking tray and cover them with cling film. Put them in the fridge until you're ready to cook them in the evening.
  • Enjoy these greek lamb meatballs as part of a meze platter.
