Recipe
Ingredients
- Minced lamb
- Fresh new garlic(unpeeled)
- Pomegranate molasses
- Salt
- Black pepper
Instructions
- Use whole heads of fresh 'new garlic'. Trim the top and bottom slightly, and make a deep horizontal cut without separating the cloves. Sandwich meatballs made of minced lamb, salt, and black pepper firmly into these cuts. Arrange in a circle on a baking tray, and drizzle with a sauce of pomegranate molasses, water, and olive oil. Roasting slowly in the oven removes the garlic's harshness, making it surprisingly sweet and fluffy.
