KALLEH GONJESHKI (MEATBALLS AND POTATOES)



Kalleh Gonjeshki (Meatballs and Potatoes) image

Kalleh gonjeshki is a comforting and nostalgic Iranian dish that, at its core, is a simple preparation of meatballs and potatoes simmered in a tomatoey sauce. Kalleh gonjeshki means "sparrow's head" in Persian, and the name is a reference to the size of the meatballs. Every family has its own version of this childhood favorite, and the dish hits the spot on cooler evenings. Don't replace the dried mint in the meatball mixture with fresh mint, as the dried mint contributes earthier notes and provides more flavor and fragrance. To cut down on time and pans, the meatballs are first baked in the oven, but you can also pan-fry them on the stovetop if you like. Kalleh gonjsheki is served with a side of bread, but you can also serve it alongside rice.

Categories     meatballs

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound ground beef or lamb, or combination
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1 teaspoon dried mint, crushed between your fingers (optional)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 small yellow onion, grated on the largest hole of a box grater
1 large garlic clove, finely grated
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 garlic cloves, finely grated
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 large Yukon Gold potato (about 8 ounces), peeled and diced into 1/2-inch cubes
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the center of the oven, and heat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Place the meat in a large bowl and spread it out, creating a flat surface, to ensure the spices are evenly distributed. Sprinkle the salt, dried mint (if using), pepper and turmeric evenly over the meat. Add the grated onion and garlic, and mix everything well with your clean hands. Set a small bowl of warm water next to you, and wet your palms a little so the meat doesn't stick to your hands. Roll the meat mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls (the size of a sparrow's head), about 1 tablespoon of meat mixture per meatball. (You should have around 25 to 30 meatballs.) Place the meatballs on the prepared sheet pan, drizzle with the olive oil and bake until cooked through and slightly browned on top, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce: In a medium sauté pan or pot with a lid, heat the oil over medium-high, add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle the onion with a little salt, reduce the heat to medium and add the garlic and turmeric. Cook for about 2 minutes, until the garlic and turmeric are fragrant.
  • Add the potatoes, season with salt and pepper, stir, and cook for 2 minutes just to take the raw edge off. Push the potatoes to the sides and make a little space in the middle of the pot. Add the tomato paste to the oil in the center, stirring to cook off its raw taste and deepen the color, and taking care not to burn it, about 1 minute. Mix the tomato paste with the potatoes, add 1 1/2 cups of water, stir and bring to a gentle boil. Add the meatballs, reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Taste the sauce and a potato, and adjust seasonings to your liking. Add the cinnamon, gently stir, cover and cook for another 5 minutes, until all the flavors have melded. You can add more water if you'd like a slightly thinner sauce.

THE BEST MEATBALLS



The Best Meatballs image

I never knew how to make good meatballs until I found this recipe. I normally make mine with just ground beef and they still taste great. I've used the combination of pork, beef and veal and they are equally good. Definitely use fresh bread crumbs and freshly grate your cheese instead of using the canned variety...it really does make a difference.

Provided by Geanine

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound ground beef
½ pound ground veal
½ pound ground pork
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 eggs
1 cup freshly grated Romano cheese
1 ½ tablespoons chopped Italian flat leaf parsley
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 cups stale Italian bread, crumbled
1 ½ cups lukewarm water
1 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Combine beef, veal, and pork in a large bowl. Add garlic, eggs, cheese, parsley, salt and pepper.
  • Blend bread crumbs into meat mixture. Slowly add the water 1/2 cup at a time. The mixture should be very moist but still hold its shape if rolled into meatballs. (I usually use about 1 1/4 cups of water). Shape into meatballs.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Fry meatballs in batches. When the meatball is very brown and slightly crisp remove from the heat and drain on a paper towel. (If your mixture is too wet, cover the meatballs while they are cooking so that they hold their shape better.)

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Use small, round potatoes such as baby potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes. These potatoes will hold their shape well and won't fall apart when baked.
  • Cook the potatoes thoroughly: Make sure the potatoes are cooked all the way through before filling them with the meatball mixture. Otherwise, the potatoes will be hard and the meatballs will not cook evenly.
  • Use a good quality ground beef: The quality of the ground beef will make a big difference in the flavor of the meatballs. Choose a ground beef that is at least 80% lean.
  • Season the meatballs well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of seasonings to the meatballs. This will help them to be flavorful and delicious.
  • Brown the meatballs before baking: Browning the meatballs before baking will help to keep them moist and prevent them from drying out.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: Feel free to use a variety of cheeses in the meatball mixture. This will add a complex flavor to the meatballs.
  • Serve the meatballs immediately: Meatballs are best served immediately after they are baked. This will ensure that they are hot and juicy.

Conclusion:

Meatballs in potato cups are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be made ahead of time and reheated. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your meatballs in potato cups are perfect every time.
