Drain on paper towels and put in the fridge. Heat the olive oil in a large pan, add the tomatoes, remaining two chopped onions, garlic and pepper and stir-fry for about 10 minutes. Add 200ml of water and simmer covered for an hour, stirring occasionally. Add the lamb meatballs and cook uncovered for a further 20 minutes (add more water if required but don't over do it as the sauce should be quite thick). Serve hot. It goes well with couscous and Harissa. |
