Directions

Tear up bread slices into the bowl of a food processor, process into fine crumbs. Add ground lamb and egg, process until blended. Add parsley, garlic, cumin, mint, allspice, salt, and pepper, process until evenly combined.
Roll lamb mixture into small meatballs.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook meatballs in batches, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes per batch. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon.
