Fried Lamb Meatballs
2 Medium slices of bread, crusts removed
500g Minced (ground) lamb
1 Onion
1 Tsp dried Thyme and Oregano
3 Tbsp Chopped Flat Leaf Parsley (extra for serving)
1 Egg, lightly beaten
Salt & Pepper
Lemon Wedges, to serve
For Frying
25g Plain Flour (all purpose)
2-3 Tbsp Vegetable Oil
Serves 4
Preparation 10-15 Minutes
Cooking 5 Minutes
Soak the slices of bread in a shallow bowl of water for 5 minutes.
While the bread is soaking, grate or very finely chop the onion.
Drain the bread, using clean hands, squeeze it dry and put it in a large bowl.
Add the meat, onion, dried herbs, parsley, egg, salt & pepper to the bread.
Mix together using your hands, until well blended.
Shape the meat mixture into individual balls about the size of a walnut, and roll them in the flour to give them a light dusting, shaking off any excess coating.
Heat the oil in a large frying pan, when its hot, add the meatballs and fry for about 5 minutes, turning them frequently, until they are cooked through and look crisp and brown.
Using a slotted spoon, lift out the meatballs and drain on a double sheet of kitchen paper, to get rid of any excess oil. Sprinkle with the remaining chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
