    List of Ingredients




    1 lb (450 g) lean ground lamb or beef
    1 medium onion, finely chopped
    1/4 cup (60 ml) uncooked rice
    Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
    3 cups (750 ml) water
    1 cup (250 ml) olive or vegetable oil
    2 eggs, beaten

    Recipe



    Combine the meat, onion, rice, and salt and pepper and mix thoroughly.
    Form
    into meatballs about 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter. Bring the water to a
    boil in
    a saucepan and add the meatballs. Reduce the heat and simmer uncovered
    for 30
    minutes, adding more water if necessary. Remove the meatballs to a
    plate and
    discard the water. Heat the oil to a temperature of 350F (180C), or
    until the
    surface shimmers. Dip the meatballs into the beaten egg and deep fry
    for about
    5 minutes, turning as necessary, until browned on all sides. Drain on
    paper
    towels and keep warm until served. These may be served on wooden
    skewers. Makes
    about 16 meatballs.
