Turkish Meatballs

• 1 cup dried Bulgar wheat
• 1 lb ground lamb
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1/4 cup raisins, soaked in hot water
• 2 teaspoons cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon allspice
• 1 egg
• fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

1. Cook the bulgur by covering it with a cup of boiling water and letting it soak in a covered bowl for about 10 minutes.
2. Uncover and let cool for a few minutes.
3. Meanwhile, put the rest of the ingredients except the parsley in a mixing bowl.
4. Add in the cooled bulgur and use your hands to thoroughly mix everything together.
5. Roll them with your hands into balls around the same size as a golf ball and flatten them a little.
6. Now you can either bake them in a hot oven for around 10 minutes or fry them in hot oil until they are browned all over.
7. Serve with parsley sprinkled on top.
