2. 2
   Shape the mixture into flat round patties 6 cm across.

To assemble

1. 3
   Heat the wide skillet over medium-high heat and drizzle the olive oil over it.

   💡What you brown (meat, patties, schnitzel) goes into hot oil: in lukewarm oil it soaks it up and comes out greasy. For onion and garlic that you soften, oil heated over medium or low heat is enough; do not wait for it to smoke.
2. 4
   Fry the meatballs 3–4 minutes per side, until they brown and crisp.

   Stove

   💡Don't press the patties with a spatula or flip them more than once: the juices run out and the patty dries out or falls apart. It releases from the pan once the underside is browned.
3. 5
   Serve warm with lemon slices and tahini.
