Ingredients

30 servings

  • 1 ½ pounds ground lamb
  • ½ cup panko bread crumbs
  • ½ cup minced scallions
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
  • 1 tablespoon advieh
  • 2 teaspoons dried dill
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • cooking spray
  • 2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses, or to taste

Instructions

  • 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.
