Ingredients

• Halal ground beef - 250 grams

• Egg - 1 large
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Onion - 1 small, finely chopped
• Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, chopped onion, parsley, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Form the mixture into meatballs, about 4 cm in diameter.
4. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook for about 5-6 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides.
