Moroccan Meatballs

== Description ==
A nice combination of taste, and a little different. I made these half size and served them as an appetizer with a tart cranberry dip. From local newspaper. 
== Ingredients ==
* 2 teaspoons olive oil 
* ½ small onion, chopped 
* 1 clove garlic, smashed 
* 1 lb ground lamb 
* ½ cup cooked couscous 
* 1 egg, beaten 
* 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley 
* ½ teaspoon turmeric 
* ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon 
* ¼ teaspoon ground ginger 
== Directions ==
# Preheat oven to 350 °F degrees.
# In a small non-stick frying pan, heat oil over medium heat.
# Saute onion and garlic for 3 minutes or until browned.
# In a medium bowl, combine ground lamb, couscous, egg, parsley, turmeric, cinnamon and ginger.
# Add sauteed onion and garlic.
# Mix well, form into 1 and ½ inch meatballs.
# Place on a prepared baking sheet.
# Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, turning after 15 minutes, until browned on all sides and no longer pink.
