Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Pop the breadcrumbs, lamb mince, egg and plenty of seasoning in a bowl. Grate in half an onion and sprinkle in half the chopped mint. Give everything a good mix and shape into 8 patties. Place on a large, shallow roasting tray.
  2. Cut the remaining onion halves into wedges. Place them on the tray around the lamb patties with the potatoes, courgettes and cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with olive oil and season. Bake for around 40 mins, turning everything once, until the lamb is cooked though and the vegetables are tender. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with feta and remaining mint.

    Really lovely, simple and satisfying. Great with tzatziki for those who need a bit of sauce!

    My partner didn't like the sound of it as it sounded dry without sauce but he really enjoyed it. Thumbs up from my 2 boys as well.

    This was very tasty. Used ordinary onion for the patties but used red onion for the wedges. Also increased the amount of tomatoes and potatoes as it didn't seem enough for four. Served with tzatziki as suggested previously. A big hit with all of us!!

    Tasty and so easy, popped feta in for last few minutes cooking so had began to melt....nice but these quantities didn't feed four!

    Enjoyed this a lot but it took a lot longer than I thought to cook the potato wedges. Would cut them much thinner next time.

    Really delicious. I'm going to add a bit of tzatziki as suggested next time for a sauce. Also agree that the portion sizes were wrong. This was for 2 not 4 people.

    Generally a lovely dish. I was worried my breadcrumbs were too fresh as the mix was very wet, but the burgers were fantastic and the veg had great flavour. Home made tzatziki added extra texture. However, despite slicing the potatoes fairly thinly, they still didn't really cook well. Different potatoes may be the answer or I might try rubbing them with oil before putting them in the dish as per the oven baked potato slices elsewhere on the site.

    I found this a little bland. I think I under seasoned it a little though. I might try adding a drizzle of balsamic over the top next time and also sling a few olives into the roasting pan. I also thought it might be nice to add some cumin to the meatballs but not 100% sure it would go. I also served with tzatziki but thought it might be nicer with a really nice vinegarette.

    So relieved to see other people saying it didnt feed 4 people thought we were just v greedy. I made it using 450g lamb mince but same amount of breadcrumbs and egg and meatballs were lovely. Also added mushrooms and green beans and put the tomatoes in for last 15 mins rather than from the beginnning and some black olives on at the end. Gorgeous and easy will definately make again, SOON.

    I replaced the lamb mince and mint with chicken mince and parsely which turned out great. To avoid the problem of undercooked potatoes I replaced them with wedges of pumpkin. I served my chicken meatballs with sweet chilli sauce. This is a great way to avoid pasta - i.e. carbs. I did double the ingredients though as there was clearly not going to be enough!

    Needed the feta to lift it from the mundane. My dish did not have the same golden appearance as the photo and had to halve the potato wedges half way through as it was clear they were not going to be ready at the same time as everything else. Would cut much smaller and toss them in oil beforehand the next time. Having said that, the family enjoyed it!
