Ingredients

1 pound ground lamb
1/2 cup bulgur wheat
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley, chopped
1 large onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 large egg
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (14 1/2-ounce) can Italian plum tomato with their juice broken up
1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce

Directions:

Set Sun Oven out to preheat.

Combine the lamb, bulgur, and parsley, half of the onion, one-third of the garlic, the egg, cumin, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper in a bowl. Knead the mixture well, then cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Shape the meat mixture into 20 meatballs.

In a large pot or roasting pan, combine the oil, remaining onion and garlic, tomatoes, tomato sauce, water, cinnamon stick, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper, water, and cinnamon stick.
