There hasn’t been any dish with meatballs and potatoes that I haven’t fallen in love with. Here is another delicious meatballs recipe from Turkish cuisine.
Meatball ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 lean)
- 3 tablespoons bread crumbs
- 1 onion (grated)
- 2 eggs
- pinch salt
- pinch black pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
In addition:
- 3 potatoes
- 3 tablespoon milk
- pinch salt
Instructions:
- Except olive oil, mix all the meatball ingredients. Brush the oven pan with olive oil. Shape into egg-size meatballs. Flatten them a bit and make a dent in the center with your thumb. Place them in the oven pan and brush them with the remainin olive oil. Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Bake the meatballs for 20-25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, boil the potatoes. Drain, peel, and mash with milk and salt.
- Take the meatballs out of the oven. Fill each dent in the meatballs with a little bit of mashed potato, using a teaspoon. Bake for another 4-5 minutes.
