Instructions:
Prepare the Lamb Meatballs 🍖: In a bowl, combine lamb mince, golden cumin spice blend, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and grated white onion. Mix well and shape into small meatballs.

Prepare the Shirazi Salad 🥗: In a bowl, mix together diced tomatoes, cucumber, and chopped mint. Add zaatar spice blend, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything well and set aside.

Make the Hummus 🥙: In a food processor, combine chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Blend until smooth, adding water as needed to achieve the desired consistency. Set aside.

Cook the Rice 🍚: In a medium saucepan, combine basmati rice, water, salt, and olive oil. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let the rice sit, covered, for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.

Cook the Lamb Meatballs 🍖: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and golden on the outside (internal temperature of 160°F for well-cooked lamb).

Serve 🥙: Warm the flatbread or pita. Spread a generous amount of hummus on the bread, then top with the roasted lamb meatballs. Drizzle with zaatar yogurt sauce and serve with the Shirazi salad and rice on the side.
