    Categories: Lamb/mutton, Citrus, Vegetables
    Yield: 4 servings

    1 lb Ground lamb
    2 md Yellow onions; 1 fine
    - grated; and 1 fine chop'd,
    - divided
    1/3 c Chickpea flour
    2 tb Kosher salt; divided
    3 tb Ground turmeric; divided
    4 ts Fresh ground black pepper;
    - divided
    1/4 c Oil
    1/2 c Fresh lemon juice
    21 oz Carrots; peeled, in 1"
    - cubes
    10 oz Yellow potatoes; peeled, in
    - 1" cubes

    In a large bowl, add the lamb, grated onion, chickpea
    flour, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 tablespoon turmeric, and 2
    teaspoons pepper. Use your hands to mix well, then shape
    into balls about 1" diameter (You should have about 33
    meatballs, weighing 1/4 oz each). Set aside while you
    make the sauce.

    In a large skillet set over medium heat, add the oil.
    When the oil is hot, add the chopped onions and the
    remaining 1 tablespoon salt and cook, stirring
    occasionally until the onions are soft and just
    beginning to turn golden, 15-18 minutes.

    Add the remaining 2 tablespoons turmeric and continue
    cooking, stirring until completely combined, about 1
    minute. Add 3 cups cold water and increase the heat to
    medium-high. Add the lemon juice and remaining 2
    teaspoons pepper.

    Bring to a boil, then regulate the heat to maintain a
    strong simmer. Gently add the meatballs and cook for 5
    minutes, then gently stir in the carrots and potatoes.

    Bring back to a boil, then lower the heat to low and
    simmer until the meatballs are cooked through, the
    vegetables are tender when poked with a fork, and the
    sauce is thickened, about 1 hour.

    Serve immediately.
