Mozzarella Stuffed Meatballs (Mocarela Mbushur Qofte Mish Gengji)
I love having opportunities to get my slow cooker
out! This stuffed meatball recipe is easy to make and can cook away during the
day. Swap lamb for beef to create different textures, or you can add mint to
the lamb.

Directions:
Flatten the mince out on a large surface or in a
large dish.
Sprinkle the onion, parsley, garlic powder,
bread crumbs, salt and pepper over the top.
Crack the egg over the middle and add the milk.
Mix and kneed together until a soft pate is formed
into one big ball.
break into 10 equal balls and roll – push one piece
of mozzarella into the middle and roll again to ensure it cannot be seen and is
completely covered with the pate.
Add a layer of sauce into the bottom of a slow cooker
or a casserole dish, then add the 10 stuffed meatballs on top.
Add another layer of sauce over the stuffed meatballs
ensuring all covered.

180 degrees depending on cooking method.
