A little bit about lamb and feta meatballs

I don't really eat lamb- like at all. But this one time, Lauren cooked us some lamb and feta meatballs and they were pretty good!
So we had it again and I want to share the very basic, simple recipe that anyone can cook.

I had a hard time choosing the feta. Greek feta, sheep feta, goat feta, cow feta, buffalo feta, traditional feta. WHICH ONE??
Then I thought, since we were having lamb, might as well get sheep feta. It's like eating a whole sheep; the meat and the milk.
All you do: mix the mince and crumbled feta and roll into balls.
Place in an ovenproof dish after frying and pour pasta sauce on top
20 minutes in the oven and it's ready to serve over pasta!

Lamb and feta meatballs

700 gr lamb mince
180-200 gr of feta
oil for frying
500 gr pasta sauce (about one jar)
herbs
pasta

1. Crumble the feta and mix with mince.
2. Roll into balls and fry in a greased frying pan until browned.
3. Place in an ovenproof dish and pour pasta sauce and season with herbs.
4. Cover and bake at 180C for 30 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, cook the pasta until al dente.
6. Serve lamb and feta meatballs over pasta with more cheese.

Serves 4 hungry elisas and laurens

Very very easy recipe that requires little energy. Making you hungry?

 

And to conclude,

The reason we were lookin pretty is because we were going to Laurie's birthday celebration that night!
1950s theme complete with music to swing dance to!
Strawberry and vanilla cupcakes topped with a jaffa
And we had floats!!

I thoroughly enjoyed myself, especially watching the Webb siblings dance.

Signed,
