Turkish Butcher's Meatballs (Kasap Kofte)

2 lb ground beef

1 tsp salt to taste

1 onion, grated

2-3 cloves of garlic, smashed

½ cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

½ tsp thyme

½ tsp cumin

½ tsp black pepper

½ tsp crushed red pepper

 

Combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl. Knead until the ground beef absorbs the ingredients.

Grab egg size or bigger pieces and make balls rolling them in between your palms. Then, flatten the meat balls as seen in the picture. 

Cook both sides over the grill until they get browned. Serve with salad and/or greens.
