Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground lamb
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 0.5 tsp cinnamon
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 unit small onion, grated
  • 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, cumin, coriander, paprika, cinnamon, salt, pepper, garlic, onion, and cilantro. Mix well until everything is evenly incorporated.
  3. Shape the mixture into 1.5-inch meatballs, about 18 in total.
  4. Heat olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, until they are browned on all sides, about 6 minutes.
  5. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving with your choice of side dish.
