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.

Serves 4 People
20 Minutes

Ingredients:
-                 500 grams Lamb Mince
-                 1/4 Cup Fresh Parsley (Finely chopped)
-                 1/2 Onion (Finely Diced)
-                 1 Tsp Garlic Powder
-                 1/2 Cup Breadcrumbs
-                 1 Egg
-                 1 Tbsp Milk
-                 1/2 Mozzarella ball (cubed)
-                 2 Jars Meatball or Pasta Sauce
-                 Salt and pepper

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.
Cover with a lid and cook for 6 hours high or 3 hours 180 degrees depending on cooking method.
