RECIPE:
▢1 slice sandwich bread, day-old or toasted (gluten free is okay)
▢1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
▢1 yellow onion, grated
▢2 garlic cloves, minced
▢1 large egg
▢1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley and/or mint, plus more for garnish
▢1 teaspoon dried oregano
▢1 tablespoon ground coriander
▢1 teaspoon ground cumin
▢1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
▢Kosher salt
▢Black pepper
▢4 Yukon gold potatoes, cut into small chunks or cubes
▢1 red onion, halved and thinly sliced
▢1 batch Ladolemono Sauce
Ladolemono Sauce:
▢¼ cup fresh lemon juice, juice of 2 large lemons
▢1 to 2 teaspoons dried oregano
▢1 large garlic clove minced
▢¾ teaspoon kosher salt
▢¾ teaspoon black pepper
▢¾ cup extra virgin olive oil
*Prep the oven:* Place a rack in the center and preheat to 375°F.
*Soak the bread:* Put the bread in a small bowl and cover with water or milk. Let it soften for a few minutes, then wring out the excess liquid and crumble into a mixing bowl.
*Make the meatball mixture:* Add the beef, onion, garlic, egg, parsley and/or mint, oregano, coriander, cumin, nutmeg, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Use your hands to mix until well combined.
*Assemble:* Spread the potatoes and onion in a 9×13 baking dish and season with salt and pepper. Form about 15 small meatballs and nestle them among the potatoes and onions. Pour the ladolemono evenly over everything.
*Bake:* Cover with foil and bake for 30–40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake another 10 minutes, until the meatballs are cooked through and the potatoes are tender and golden.
*Finish and serve:* Garnish with fresh herbs and serve warm.
This is really delicious! I added a ton of bell pepper strips and some carrots and split everything onto two sheet pans and it was amazing. The bread (I used gluten free oat bread) makes the meatballs so tender.
