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.

    tried this for a quick supper, absolutely delicious, moist, tender and a wonderful combination of flavours. I also didnt have any mint, so used rosemary instead, perfect, will certainly be having it again soon.

    Quick and easy for mid-week. Didn't have any mint so used oregano instead, and added garlic to meatballs. Would be nice with a bit of chilli in. Didn't cook the meatballs for 40 mins either as I thought they would have dried out, so cooked them for 25.

    My fave good food recipe yet, partner loved it also. Agree with others that wouldn't feed four but other than that perfect, no probs with cooking time or didn't find in any way bland - have already made it twice :)

    Really lovely but I did tweak it a bit. I made the meat patties and then fried them about 15 minutes before the vegetables were done as I thought they may go mushy in the tray with the veg. They were really very good. If I made again, I would put the tomatoes in about 5 minutes before the end of cooking time as mine disintegrated! Also, nowhere near enough to feed 4 people. I fed 3 people with the above quantities.

    Really tasty. I also par-boiled my wedges for 10-15 minutes. Really juicy, I didn't think that it required any extra sauce:)

    @Naomi, love the suggestion to serve with tzatziki. I doubled the lamb for 4 and seasoned the meat with a bit of garlic powder, cumin and black pepper. I also added a couple of carrots quartered both ways, and half a red bell pepper cut into slivers. Drizzling the pan with oil once everything is in it is ineffective, it's best to toss all the veggies in the oil and seasoning in a separate bowl prior to adding to the pan.

    Delicious - not usually a great fan of mint but this really lifted the dish. I'd agree about the portion size being too small. Going to make again with double the lamb mince and going to try some olives as well

    Delicious! I'd say this serves 2 though. I served with tzatziki which was really nice. My courgette and onion were cut too think and got a bit frazzled so next time I'd cut them bigger, and the potatoes smaller. Definitely will make this again with a few tweaks. Made some for the kids with mini meatballs and wedges and they went down a treat.

    This was so good, have made it several times now. Followed the recipe exactly (half for two people) and though it looked like it wouldn't be enough it was actually really filling so was just the right amount. I just can't believe how far a little meat goes in this dish!

    An absolute winner! So easy and extremely tasty. I added fesh Oregano with the mint and it really added some more Greekness. Oh and added asparagus with the veg. Yum.

    Easy , brilliant ,tasty. Added red onion and red capsicum ,more courgette before baking. Before serving added squeeze of lemon, black olives, and greek yoghurt for the patties . The mint is essential in the lamb and on top. Everything was cooked perfectly.Will make this often.

    Definitely agree that the portion size is wrong -- admittedly we left the feta in the fridge and completely forgot about it, but it only just about fed the two of us! Having said that, it was so scrummy! And, I think a couple of mezze-type sides would have made it feel just that bit more of a proper meal if you had been serving for 4 -- maybe some pittas, olives, green salad and hummus/tzatziki. Finally, don't get too-lean lamb -- it still holds together to make the patties, but the juices aren't so sweet and sticky. There are some things that should just be a little bit guilty...!

    A lovely weekend dinner but the portion sizes are off ! I did 450g of lamb mince and doubled the veg to serve two adults and two hungry kids. Kept the egg and breadcrumbs the same though and the meatballs came out really well. It needs plenty of seasoning and I also let the feta melt a bit at the end. Served with a green salad, tzatziki and toasted pitta - really yummy.

    So easy for a midweek recipe and really impressed with the flavours - even if you think you don't like feta, you probably will do in this one!! Served with some green beans which added nice contrast....or maybe a salad?
