Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 lb ground beef (grass fed if possible)
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp chili flakes
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 Tbsps avocado oil, or olive oil
  • 1 cup pure pomegranate juice
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond or coconut milk
  • 1 cup beef stock
  • Fresh chopped parsley, for garnish
  • 1/2 cup fresh pomegranate perils/seeds, for serving

Instruction

  • In a large bowl, mix the beef with the ground cumin, chili flakes, cayenne pepper and salt. Add the egg and mix thoroughly until all is blended well.
  • Form the meatballs, by taking one full tablespoon of the beef mixture and roll it between your palms until you have created nice, evenly round meatballs.
  • Place a large skillet on medium heat, drizzle with oil, and when it’s hot enough start adding your meatballs. Sear them for about 2 minutes on one side, then flip them on the other side and cook for 2 more minutes.
  • Add the pomegranate juice, beef stock and milk to the skillet, cover with a tight lid and let simmer for about 20 minutes until the meatballs are cooked through and tender.
  • Sprinkle with chopped parsley and pomegranate seeds - serve hot.
