Ground lamb is not used enough even though it is really easy to source. These keftas (patties or meatballs) can be simply grilled or broiled and served with any side.

Ingredients
Directions
In a bowl combine the ground lamb, chopped onions, cilantro, parsley, mint, Iris spice, baharat, urfa and season with salt. Portion 1 ounce balls (about 18 total) and shape into small football shaped patties. Set aside.
In a pan large enough to fit all the keftas, warm some olive oil. Cook the keftas on medium heat for about 5 minutes flipping them over to cook on all sides. Remove them from the pan and set aside. Add some more olive oil and cook the tomatoes and zucchini for about 5 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
Add the keftas back into the pan sauce and cook for 5 more minutes.
Drizzle the lemon juice over the keftas and serve. You can also plate them over tahina sauce as pictured. Make sure you have some pita or other type of bread for the sauce!!!!
