sweet and spicy souvenirs - orzo with lamb meatballs

• 11 Jan 2012

I was looking through my cupboards and realised I still have a few goodies I bought last year that have yet to appear on the blog.



I decided to make my new favourite recipe, orzo with lamb meatballs, which is based on a recipe from Gourmet Traveller magazine. I paired the meatballs with my new Cote Bastide linen tea towel, which I purchased from Sissy Boy in Amsterdam.



The tea-towel is very large so sometimes I only show the white linen part of the cloth in my photos.



The original recipe used pork, which I don't eat, so I used lamb mince instead. I also added an egg to the mixture which makes for nice light meatballs. The cumin and touch of chilli make these meat balls very yummy.

I hope you like them,
