Posted on 10th of April, 2012 by Lévana

Lamb Meatballs in Apple Chutney Sauce Recipe
Posted on 5th of March, 2012 by Lévana

Spicy Moroccan Chicken, Liver and Lamb Meatballs Recipe
Posted on 19th of February, 2012 by Lévana
I always loved this Sephardi dish I grew up with: In the finished dish the chicken breasts were diced, the chicken livers were whole and the lamb was shaped into meatballs. I made it and it was quite delicious but a little messy. When I recently asked my mother how...
