PREPARATION (30 minutes) - Place the bulgur in a small bowl, add
enough cold water to cover and let soak for 10 minutes. Drain through
a sieve lined with a piece of cheesecloth. Wrap the cheesecloth

metal blade and blend until finely chopped. (Or coarse chop)

bulgur, chickpeas, lamb, bread crumbs, egg, lemon juice, garlic,
coriander, cumin, salt, pepper and mint in a large mixing bowl and
combine well. - With cold, wet hands, roll the mixture into 30
balls,about 1-1/2 in (3 cm) in diameter. Place on a large plate,
cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes. Re-roll the chilled
meatballs, if necessary, to refine the shape. - Heat half the oil in
a large, non-stick skillet over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low,
add half the meatballs and cook, moving and turning over frequently,
until browned on all sides and cooked in the center, about 6 to 8
minutes. Test one for pink-center. Transfer to paper toweling when
done. Cover with foil to keep warm. - Heat the remaining oil in the
skillet and cook the remaining meatballs. - Place meatballs on a warm
serving platter. Serve hot, garnished with mint and salad leaves or
dandilion greens. Serve with yogurt in a bowl. Recipe By
