Yesterday was a beautiful shy Friday, it was a little gloomy and windy, just my kind of weather, it was busy just like every other day. We did not have our traditional lunch though, instead, we had a birthday party! Yup! Our friend’s son celebrated the big four!!  So we had plenty of cake instead of lunch and boy! We loved it!

Today I will share a recipe of I dish I made earlier this week, I made it for my husband, he is a meat lover! Me on the other hand, as you all know by now, I am vegetarian so I was enjoying my lentils with quinoa, which I will share its recipe later on.

Today’s recipe is of another Moroccan dish: Meatballs with eggs or as we call it ” Kufta bel baid”. Again, this is my easy way of making it and my husband loves it; I hope you try it and love it too.

Let’s get started shall we?

Ingredients:

For the meatballs:

500g minced meat

1 onion (2 if small)

1 garlic clove

1 chilli pepper

Parsley and coriander (few leaves each)

1 tsp salt

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp pepper

For the sauce:

1tbsp olive oil

1 tsp salt

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp pepper

½ cup of water

2 eggs

Instructions:

Blend the onion, garlic, chili, coriander and parsley all together add it to the minced meat, add the spices and mix. Then start making your meatballs (it is really up to you how big you want them to be).

Take out a pan,  pour the olive oil in it, once hot add the meatballs, the spices (for the sauce) then the water and let it simmer, once the meatballs are cooked , add the eggs, as if you want to make an omelet. Leave it under low heat for 3 to 5 minutes and voila!!

You can have it with rice, quinoa or just bread! Bon Appetit!!
