Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion, minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 1 bunch flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped
  • 6 sprigs fresh rosemary, stems removed, roughly chopped
  • 1 cup bread crumbs
  • ¼ teaspoons salt
  • 1½ teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 pounds fresh ground lamb
  • 8 ounces feta cheese, in ½-inch dice
  • ½ cup chopped flat-leaf parsley, for garnish (optional)
    • Directions
  • 1.

    Preheat the oven to 375°F. Heat oil in a medium saute pan on medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Stir in eggs, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, parsley, rosemary, bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Add lamb and mix until well combined.

  • 2.

    Spoon one heaping tablespoon of the lamb mixture into your hands and form into a ball. Push one cube of feta into the ball, re-rolling it if necessary so feta is completely covered. Transfer to a baking sheet with raised edges. Repeat with the lamb mixture and feta. You should have 50 to 60 meatballs. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
