YOU Magazine Fashion Beauty Celebrity Health Life Relationships Horoscopes Food Interiors Travel Home Food Two Chubby Cubs lamb and halloumi meatballs By You Magazine - March 8, 2020 Meatballs have been a staple of our blog – partly because they’re an easy dish, partly because they’re fun to make. Don’t be afraid of lamb mince – it does have a higher fat content than pork or turkey mince but that adds the flavour. You can lower the fat by having a butcher make the mince for you. You should make friends with your local butcher; ours loves the sight of us – I think we’ve paid for his caravan twice over. Haarala Hamilton 399 Calories SERVES 4 500g lamb mince 125g halloumi cheese, diced into small cubes 2 tsp dried oregano 1 tsp paprika oil 1 onion, finely diced 3 cloves of garlic, crushed 400g tin chopped tomatoes 2 tbsp tomato purée 150ml chicken stock 8 fresh basil leaves 1. Preheat the oven to 220C/ 200C fan/gas 7. 2. Mix together the lamb mince, halloumi, 1 teaspoon of oregano and the paprika, being careful not to over-mix, then divide the mixture into 20-24 portions and roll them into meatballs. 3. Spray a large baking sheet with a little oil and place the meatballs on the sheet. Bake for 20 minutes. 4. Meanwhile, place a large saucepan over a medium heat, spray with a little oil and add the onion. Cook for 2-3 minutes until it is starting to turn translucent. Add the garlic and stir well, then add the rest of the ingredients to the pan, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes, until thickened. 5.
