A delightful twist on traditional Greek meatballs, these Mediterranean lamb meatballs are flavorful and paired with a refreshing tzatziki sauce.
Combine the ground lamb, onion, garlic, parsley, mint, cumin, cinnamon, egg, breadcrumbs, and feta cheese in a mixing bowl.
Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can make the meatballs dense.
Shape the mixture into small balls, about the size of a walnut.
Keep your hands slightly damp to prevent the mixture from sticking.
Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat and cook the meatballs until browned on all sides and cooked through.
Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, which can lower the temperature and cause uneven cooking.
In a bowl, mix the yogurt, grated cucumber, dill, garlic, and lemon juice to make the tzatziki sauce.
Let the sauce chill in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes to enhance the flavors.
Serve the meatballs warm with the tzatziki sauce on the side.
Garnish with additional chopped parsley or mint for a fresh touch.
