| Jerusalem, the cookbook by Ottolenghi has many wonderful recipes. Tonight I made beef and lamb kofta, that is, meatballs with lots of wonderful spices, onions, garlic, and pine nuts. Here you can see my nutmeg grater and jars of allspice and cinnamon. The jars are very old: I refill them from bulk spice shops, and keep track of the date. |
 |
| Ready for the oven. Rather than fry the meatballs I bake them at 475ยบ F. |
 |
| Toasted pine nuts and parsley, ready to garnish the meatballs. |
 |
| Out of the oven... |
 |
| Into the tahini and lemon sauce... |
 |
| And ready to serve, along with some stuffed grape leaves from Trader Joe's. I made this recipe a couple of years ago and have been meaning to return to Ottolenghi! |

Your timing is impeccable, Mae! Not to mention those Kofta look and sound amazing!!!
Meatball Day is going to be a blast!
Thank you so much for sharing and "playing."
Yum! Koftas with dolmades would be a fabulous meal.
That looks delicious, Mae. Sigh. And it's nearly dinner time so all the more so!
I so enjoy his cookbooks.
