Ingredients: (4 servings)
- 500 grams ground lamb (or beef)
- 300 grams chickpea flour
- two regular onions
- one cup fresh lime juice (or vinegar)
- 3-4 spoons sugar
- cooking oil
- 1/2 teaspoon saffron
- salt
- black pepper
Directions:
Dissolve half of saffron in a cup of hot water and add with salt, pepper and chickpea flour to ground lamb (or beef) and mix well. If necessary, gradually mix in some more water so that the mix does not stick to the hand.
Slice onions and fry in oil until golden. Add five glasses of water and some salt and bring to boil. Make 3-4 cm balls from the mix and fry in oil for about 10 minutes over medium heat. Transfer balls to boiling water and add lime juice (or vinegar), sugar and the rest of saffron, and cook over medium heat for 15 minutes.
