Meatballs my way (Qoftet sipas menyres time)

These meatballs are a great hit with everyone that has tried them.  They make a great snack and/or a side dish.  Kids love them too. 

You will need: Ground beef, yellow onion, salt, pepper, garlic, egg, oregano, parsley or dill and if you have Arabic or Indian spices even better. 

Recipe:
  • 1 Ib ground beef
  • 1/2 yellow/red/white onion thinly diced
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cloves of garlic minced
  • salt, pepper, oregano and parsley or dill to taste.
  • 1 tea spoon of Indian/Arabic spices (optional)
  • 1 table spoon bread crumbs or panko (optional)
Mix all the ingredients together and shape into small balls or shapes of your choosing.  For a healthier version you may bake them in 350 degree F oven until brown.  Or you may saute in olive oil.  Serve hot and as an option with plain yogurt.

Note: You may put cheese in the middle or tofu if you like.  It will taste very good.
