*For filling:
- 150 g ground beef
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1/3 cup ground walnut halves or shelled pistachios
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp paprika
- ½ tsp chili flakes
*For case:
- 1/3 cup fine bulgur
- 1 Tbqp ground beef
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ cup boiled and mashed potato
- 1 large egg, beaten
*For frying: sunflower or other light oil
Directions:
1) In a small skillet, fry ground beef until just cooked. Add the onion and continue to stir until the onion softens
2) Add the ground nuts, salt, black pepper, paprika, and chili flakes and continue to sauté. When all the flavors have combined, remove the pan from the heat and let it rest
3) In a large mixing bowl, combine bulgur, ground beef, black pepper, salt, potato, egg knead together for several minutes to form a dough for the case
4) Break off walnut-size pieces of the dough and roll them into balls. With your index finger, push some of the meat and nut filling into the center of the dough and close the end. Shape the meatballs to be narrower at the ends and thicker in the middle in a kind of spindle shape
5) Heat the sunflower oil in a large skillet and fry the meatballs evenly on all sides until dark golden-brown. Drain them no paper towels. Serve them piping hot
