Directions Persian-Inspired Meatballs
Directions
-
Combine lamb, bread crumbs, scallions, mint, advieh, dill, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add beaten eggs, knead by hand until smooth and sticky. Cover and refrigerate until flavors blend, at least 30 minutes.
Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
Form the lamb mixture into 1-inch balls. Arrange on a rimmed baking sheet. Mist the tops with cooking spray.
Broil in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Rotate the baking sheet and broil for 3 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
Brush the meatballs with pomegranate molasses as soon as they come out of the oven.
