Merrill's away this week getting ready for her wedding, which means more meatballs for Amanda! In the video below, watch her assemble roseinparis' lovely hors d'oeuvre Kefta-Style Meatballs with Grilled Grapes and Yogurt Sauce.
This week's videos were shot and edited by talented filmmaker Elena Parker.
Little hint for rolling meatballs more quickly: try rolling two balls in the palm of your hand at a time. Learnt this technique when making tons of chocolate truffles. Actually produces a rounder ball. Takes a bit of practice, but once you've nailed it, you'll never go back :)

These sound delicious - I love the idea of the Middle Eastern flavor influences without the lamb - as a caterer, I find that so many clients shy away from lamb and this would be a great way to add some variety yet keep clients happy. If I were serving these at a party, they only change I'd make would be to skewer a small mint leaf between the meatball and the grape. Amanda, completely unrelated to the food, I just wanted to tell you that you look so pretty in this video! The blue-grey color of your top suits you and you have an alabaster glow going! ;-)
Made these tonight and they are absolutely delicious!
