I still had a lot of the meatballs from this post lounging in my freezer. It would seem that I am just not a big enough fan of spaghetti with meatballs to use them up in a decent time span. But low and behold I have found a use that has made my stash disappear practically over night! I spiced up my very decent but standard meatballs before frying with a spice mixture adapted from this recipe.
Meatballs
A big pinch each of allspice, cinnamon and nutmeg, all ground
A little oil to fry
A couple of sprigs of flat leaved parsley, roughly chopped
2 tblsp tahini
One tablespoon lemon juice
a little bit of crushed garlic (optional)
a little bit of crushed garlic (optional)
Salt
A couple of teaspoons water
Sweet paprika
1. Let your meatballs thaw, if frozen. Sprinkle them evenly with the spices and fry in a hot pan with a little oil.
2. While they are frying stir together your tahini sauce. Add enough water in the end to make the tahini mixture usable as dip and adorn with a dash of parpika to brighten it up.
3. Sprinkle the fresh parsley over your meatballs, plate them up with your sauce and serve with toothpicks for dipping.
