Method

1

Mince onion and garlic finely; combine in a small bowl with garam masala, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper.

2

Place ground lamb in a large mixing bowl and add the spice-onion mixture; fold gently until just combined—do not overwork.

3

Form mixture into 16–20 golf-ball-sized meatballs; arrange on a parchment-lined plate.

4

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

5

Add meatballs in a single layer and cook undisturbed for 2–3 minutes until deeply browned on one side.

6

Roll meatballs to brown all sides, cooking another 4–6 minutes until cooked through (internal temperature 160°F).

7

Transfer meatballs to a clean plate and set aside.

8

Divide cooked rice evenly among four bowls.

9

Arrange meatballs, cucumber, red onion, and parsley over rice in each bowl.

10

Drizzle tahini-lemon sauce generously over each bowl.

11

Top with pomegranate seeds and chopped pistachios; serve warm.
