Turkish Meat Balls AKA KOFTAS

Serving size : 4
Cuisine type : Middle Eatern
Prep time : 60 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

traditionally we have to mix ground beef and ground lamb equally but if you have some budget issues we can make this dish just with beef too.

1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 lb ground lamb
2 cloves crushed garlic
1 medium size onion ( Puree not diced)
1 ts cumin
1 ts oregona
1 ts black pepper
1 ts kosher salt (you can use regular salt too, but kosher salt makes you look more pro)
2 eggs
1 cup plain bread crumbs
1 hand full finely choped parsley

Combine everything at same time inside a big bowl (a bowl not a cassarole dish)
you have to use your hands not food processor and do not use latex gloves.
Worst part of making this dish combining it will take approx.15 minutes
... you finally finished mixing your meat balls base , now you can start to give them a ball shape ,first.
take a walnut size meat ball base and roll it inside your palm till you see the ball and gently pressed between your palms make flat thickness should be approx 1/2 inches

before you start your second ball make your hands wet otherwise it will stick to your finger.

cooking:

2 tbs olive oil or any oil into a teflon pan or whatever you have handy(ok not any oil , olive oil or canola oil)
put enough size meatballs inside the pan and cook for 3 minutes each side.
wooow that was easy.
