👨‍🍳 作り方

1
In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, minced onion, allspice, salt, and pepper. Knead with your hands until well mixed. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
💡 プロのコツ: Chilling the mixture makes it easier to form into meatballs.
2
While the lamb mixture chills, prepare the cherry sauce. In a medium saucepan, combine the pitted cherries, water, pomegranate molasses, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Add salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cherries are soft. Mash some of the cherries to release their juices.
3
Remove the lamb mixture from the refrigerator. Form into small meatballs, about 2 cm (¾ inch) in diameter.
💡 プロのコツ: To test seasoning, fry a small amount of the mixture and taste.
4
Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches if necessary, brown the meatballs on all sides until golden. This should take about 2 minutes per batch.
5
Add the browned meatballs and any accumulated juices to the simmering cherry sauce. Stir gently to coat. Cover and continue to simmer for another 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
6
Serve the Kebab Karaz hot, garnished with toasted pine nuts and chopped fresh mint. It is traditionally served with flatbread.
💡 プロのコツ: Can also be served with rice pilaf.
