Lamb Meatballs with Bulghur Wheat and Feta (Thermomix)

80g bulghur wheat (I use coarse wholemeal, but couscous works too)

500g minced lamb

1/2 onion

15g parsley

1T dried mint

1 1/2 t ground cumin

3/4 t ground cinnamon

1 clove garlic

1/2 t salt

pepper

100 g feta

To serve, any of

Yoghurt or sesame seeds

Lemon juice

or Chilli Sauce

Boil the bulghur in a small pan till nearly tender, drain and leave to dry.

Turn the Thermomix to speed 9 with lid on and drop the parsley and garlic through the lid. Chop for 4 seconds.

Add the peeled and roughly chopped onion to the Thermomix and chop at speed 5 for 3-4 seconds

Add to the Thermomix the mince and bulghur and all the spices in layers (some mince followed by some spices and some bulghur and then repeat).

Mix reverse blade at speed 2 until well mixed

With wet hands, form into 16 balls and put a nugget of feta inside each one.

Refrigerate for an hour or two to firm up.

Ideally cook on a hot barbq. Or cook in a 200 degree oven or in a sauce pan.

Squeeze over some lemon, sprinkle over some sesame seeds and serve with yoghurt, chilli sauce or as they come.
