200gr minced beef
1/2 tsp dried mint
1 tsp tabil spice
1/2 tsp salt
freshly ground black pepper
Ingredients
3 tbsp olive oil
1 onion finely chopped
2 tbsp tomato paste
4 carrots sliced thickly
2 cups frozen peas
1 red pepper bell chopped
1 tsp tabil spice
2 cups water
1 tsp salt
freshly ground black pepper
Method
Mix all the ingredients for the meatballs and roll small balls and set aside. Fry the onions in olive oil, add tomato paste and cook for several minutes to get rid of the bitterness of the paste. Add water first and stir, add carrots, peas and red bell pepper. Gently add the meatballs and slowly stir in spices and seasoning, cook for about 1hr or until the oil surfaces.
