Okay, so maybe they're more like footballs. You can serve this Mediterranean-influenced dish with a dipping sauce made with Greek yogurt (about a cup), 1 diced cucumber, and a pinch each of parsley, cumin, and salt. Ingredients:
1 pound ground lamb |
2 heaping tablespoons dry bulgur, soaked in 1 cup water until soft (about 30 minutes), then drained |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 small onion, grated and drained |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 egg |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1 teaspoon ground paprika (optional) |
2 tablespoons chopped parsley |
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (optional) |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
Directions:
1. 1. Mix together everything but the oil with your hands. Form the mixture into ovals about the size and thickness of small hamburger patties.
2. 2. Put the meat on skewers (as shown) and brush it with the oil. Grill or broil the patties for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side.
3. 3. Serve with the dipping sauce (see above), if desired.
