    Recipe Introduction


    from Simple Dollar Meals

    List of Ingredients




    1 lb ground beef
    1 slice gf white bread, dried and crumbled
    1 tbsp ground coriander seed
    1 tbsp ground cumin
    1 small yellow onion, minced
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1 tbsp olive oil
    1 egg, beaten lightly
    1/4 cup flat leaf parsley, minced
    1/4 cup mint leaves, julienned
    1 cup plain rice or coconut yogurt
    salt and black pepper

    Recipe



    In a small bowl, mix the yogurt, a large pinch of salt, and the mint. Set aside.

    Crumble bread crumbs over ground beef and parsley in large bowl.

    Place a large frying pan over medium low heat. Add the olive oil and sweat the onions and garlic until translucent. Add 3/4 tsp salt and the coriander and cumin, and saute a minute more. Cool a minute and then add to the meat-bread crumb mixture. Add the beaten egg and mix with hands lightly just to combine. Form a test meatball and fry - taste for seasoning and add additional salt if necessary.

    Form into meatballs. Fry in batches in the pan on all sides until cooked through. Drain on paper towels if necessary.

    Serve the meatballs with the yogurt-mint sauce. Delicious for sandwiches.
