Recipe Review

Very delicious, but it made the impression it was published in the wrong cookbook - I wouldn't have batted an eyelid if you had told me that it was in The Scandinavian Cookbook. It was very delicious, slightly sweet and with a lot of spices, and because the meatballs were braised, they were very juicy. It was very much comfort food.

The downside to the Scandinavian flavouring was that it didn't go that well with the side dish, Chunky Courgette and Tomato Salad. Also, I didn't really notice it was lamb - next time I would definitely use beef or pork mince meat as it's a lot cheaper.

Served with Puréed Beetroot with Yoghurt and Za'atar as a starter, Chunky Courgette and Tomato Salad and plain white rice as a side, and Poached Pears in White Wine and Cardamom as dessert.
