Lamb & apricot meatballs
One of those dishes that holds a Turkish kitchen together. The technique is the long simmer. Do it patiently and the dish does the rest.
Total time
15 minutes
Serves
4
Difficulty
Moderate
Origin
Turkey, ottoman roots
Treat the Red Onions as the lead, not a footnote. Source the best you can find and the dish lifts itself.
No Ground Cumin on hand? Any close cousin in the same family works. The dish is a method, not a parts list.
