Moroccan lamb meatballs in tomato sauce with an egg is one of the best foods on the planet. You can’t beat how pretty this dish is and it tastes like a million dollars. It’s a great kinda-special weeknight dinner if you’re looking for something a little off the beaten path — although, this is actually one of Morocco’s most famous dishes.
We have a rotating ‘family dinner’ thing among a small group of friends where each person takes on making a dinner for the group and we all just hang and chill. It’s like a dinner party but everyone involved needs to take a turn, which solves the usual dinner party problem of the best cook in the group taking on all the dinners. It’s a great way to bump up your cooking skills and cook for a larger table than you might normally be comfortable with. I think we’ve all turned into better cooks because of it. This week was my turn and with our local Moroccan place closed due to world events and all that, I thought it was high time to make these.
These easy spiced lamb meatballs can brighten up anyone’s day.
