There was a request for lamb so let’s give this a whirl. I love meatballs for a group too - they are forgiving as far as timing goes.

We use the harissa paste from Trader Joe’s which is inexpensive and pretty spicy. The amount below makes for mild meatballs, add more if you aren’t feeding kids and want like a kick. Some markets stock a dry spice, or a more “mild” paste, so you may be able to get away with more. Taste it! The Mina brand has a nice mild option.

Regular cous cous, Israeli cous cous (the larger balls), quinoa, or no grain at all work for serving.
