Ingredients
- 3 slices bread
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/2 cup yellow onion , minced
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter , divided
- 2 pounds ground lamb
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Instructions
- In the bowl of your stand mixer add the milk to the slices of bread.
- Melt the butter in a pan and add the minced yellow onions.
- Cook them on medium low until translucent but not browned.
- Remove from heat and let cool.
- In your bowl with the milk soaked bread add the rest of the meatball ingredients including the cooked onions, but only 2 tablespoons of the butter.
- Mix it on low until the bread is broken apart and the meat is combined with the ingredients (using the stand mixer and not your hands helps keep the mixture cold and tender).
- Using a meatball scoop or your hands, scoop them into balls about the size of a ping pong ball.
- Add the rest of your butter to your skillet and cook on medium high on all sides for a total of 4-5 minutes.
- Serve over mashed potatoes with gravy.
