Cookware
baking dish · chef's knife · citrus juicer (optional) · colander · cutting board · garlic press (optional) · grater (optional) · measuring cups · measuring spoons · mixing bowls · oven mitts · stirring spoon
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and lightly oil a baking dish.
- In a large bowl, mix the lean ground beef with the egg, almond flour, minced garlic, shallot, chopped parsley, minced dill, and season with salt, pepper, and oregano; combine until evenly blended.
- Shape the meat mixture into small meatballs and arrange them in the prepared dish; bake 15–20 minutes until cooked through.
- Meanwhile, prepare the tzatziki by finely dicing half of the cucumber and mixing it with the plain Greek yogurt and a pinch of salt in a bowl; add lemon juice and zest.
- Shave dill leaves from the stems and mince; peel and mince the remaining garlic and add both to the tzatziki, mixing well.
- Prepare the salad components: halve the cucumber and tomatoes, seed the pepper and cut into rings, then slice the shallot into rings and add everything to a medium salad bowl, along with the feta and olives; drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle oregano, then toss.
- To serve, divide the salad among bowls, top with warm meatballs, and finish with a generous spoonful of tzatziki.
Two tips
- Make ahead: keep the meatballs and tzatziki separate in the fridge so you can assemble quickly later.
- Serving idea: swap in extra cucumber or lemon juice to brighten the salad, or serve with crusty bread on the side.
