Spicy Lamb Meatballs with Green Goddess Dip

Inspired by merguez, these meatballs are loaded with cumin, garlic, and paprika for the ideal one-bite nosh. Harissa gives them a fiery heat that's tempered by the herby dip.

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
  • 3/4 cup packed fresh basil leaves
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 medium scallions, chopped
  • 2 drained canned anchovy fillets
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • canola oil, for greasing baking dish
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons harissa (such as mina)
  • 1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
  • 1 pound ground lamb
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/3 cup minced shallot
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely grated
  • 2 teaspoons hungarian hot paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon ground fennel

Direction

  1. Process parsley, basil, sour cream, mayonnaise, scallions, and anchovies in a food processor until smooth, about 1 minute. Transfer mixture into a medium bowl; add salt and pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
  2. Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a 13- x 9-inch baking dish with canola oil. Whisk together 1/4 cup water and harissa in a medium bowl. Stir in breadcrumbs; let stand 5 minutes. Add lamb, cilantro, shallot, egg, garlic, paprika, cumin, coriander, fennel, and 2 teaspoons salt; stir well to combine. Shape mixture into 24 meatballs. Arrange meatballs in prepared baking dish so they are touching slightly.
  3. Bake in preheated oven until meatballs are browned and a thermometer inserted in thickest portion of meat registers 160°F, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter. Serve with dip.
