0.5tspground black pepper

2tbspvegetable 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/100°C/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 approx. 24 or 25 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 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned all over and cooked through. Serve warm.
Notes
Substitute the lamb mince for beef 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. I placed them on baking paper on a tray and covered them with cling film and put them in the fridge until I was ready to cook them in the evening.
We enjoyed the meatballs with a bowl of fresh salad and toasted multi seeded flatbreads from Asda along with:
